Our Programs
Do you want to earn your high school diploma?
- If you are 18 or older and do not have a high school diploma from the U.S., you can earn one through HCLS Project Literacy’s National External Diploma Program (NEDP) pathway
- The self-paced program can be completed in-person and/or online. Project Literacy has tutors to prepare you for the entrance exams. Once you pass the exams, you work at your own pace and meet weekly with a Project Literacy coach whose job is to help you through the program until you earn your Maryland high school diploma
- Whether you want a high school diploma for college or trade school, to get a better job, or to meet a personal goal, Project Literacy can help you obtain it for free
