The CAEC program was formerly known as the GED program

The GED Program has been replaced by a new program named the Canadian Adult Education Credential (CAEC). CAEC is a very similar program with a similar process that offers 5 core subjects with Canadian content and it will allow you to complete your High school Equivalency diploma.

Our centres are still operating and you may register to participate in one of our designated classrooms or participate through distance learning online.

If you have any New Brunswick high school credits that would exempt you from writing some of the tests, candidates may qualify to be exempt from writing a specific CAEC subject test if they can demonstrate achievement in a high school or adult education course deemed equivalent by their province or territory.

In 2008, the Community Adult Learning Program (focused on adult literacy) and the Community Access Program (focused on basic computer training and services) merged to form the Community Adult Learning Network (CALNet). This integrated network, a non-profit organization, provides a variety of adult learning services, including computer training, literacy training, and workplace training, through local centers across the province.

In the Western Valley region, there are six centres and a mobile digital literacy classroom offering a broad range of services. The Community Adult Learning Program equips learners with essential skills and knowledge to enhance their literacy. It also offers Canadian Adult Education Credential (CAEC) test preparation, empowering adults to earn their high school equivalency diploma through an individualized, learner-centered approach. These Adult Learning Centres ensure that adult learners' needs are met within their communities, providing access to technology and resources to help clients achieve their goals.

The Western Valley Region, stretching from Plaster Rock to Nackawic, is home to six academic centers and a mobile digital literacy classroom. For more information about the services offered in this region, please contact the Program Manager.
