And it’s really just a GED but it’s the same in significance. @Issa Dornan
No, it's not
You dropped out of high school with permission from a court
Most workers have GED’s regardless, it opens the same doors.
Yeah GED and diploma are way different
And got your GED after the fact
GED are actually losing value
Yeah
Employers do not view them the same
I was so disappointed when I got my diploma
^
even the military treats GED and High School Graduates differently
Okay I agree with dornan
Gotta get different ASVAB scores to do the same jobs
I didn't even finish high school and am qualified in two trades, pursuing a third currently
Honestly for the job stew wants, a ged is fine
Oh that’s nonsense, a General Education Diploma has significant value; it’s not like any drop out can just get one without any classes or education. It isn’t so simple to get a GED. You genuinely work for it as you do a high school one.
Yeah Australia is different
Yeah but they’re literally viewing GEDs as less
That’s fact
Employers treat them differently
Way differently
Which is just poor judgement.
I’d agree
Where I live they're getting rid of GEDs
I think
You can get a regular diploma now
regardless of age
I have no education certificates, only trade certificates
my grandma graduated the same class as me because of that
Have you tried going back for an adult diploma? They are accredited, some school districts offer them.
She got expelled because she got pregnant
There’s no other way to describe how poor that kind of view and judgement is, it is absolutely poor and primitive, reeking of some sort of complex.
A GED is valid.
Not in the eyes of employers
A GED is valid, but employers see it as the easy way out
But again, like I said, for what stew is doing and wants to do, a ged is fine
Employers are not the brightest in the world let’s just be realistic.
A normal HS Diploma takes 12 years of education, a GED takes a few months of classes
Stew, a GED is treated different.
GED arguably takes more work in a short span of time.
