WorkReady-U

We offer free online classes to help students in Louisiana prepare to successfully earn a high school equivalency diploma (HiSET, formerly the GED) and get ready for college and career options.

These classes are delivered entirely online! After testing and orientation at a local campus, everything else can be done anywhere with an internet connection.

Online classes are a great opportunity to set your own schedule and learn at your own pace. But they can also be challenging in a few ways. Before applying to the eLearn Program, check out this page as a way to figure out if an online class is right for you!

When do classes start?

Students can start applying on Monday, May 7th, 2018, for classes that will start in June. To learn more and to apply online, click on the links below for the campus you prefer to attend!

How to apply to take online classes
eLearn is offered at 7 campuses around the state. So to get started online, check out the campus closest to you using the links below. And remember that you’ll need to come to campus once every few months for testing, so it’s important to find a campus that is close and accessible.
