Kuepa Becomes First Latin-American Institution Recognized as a GED Authorized Provider to Offer GED Exams in Mexico Schools

MEXICO CITY--()--Latin America’s premier vocational training company Kuepa is announcing a partnership with the GED Testing Service to become the first Latin American institution recognized as a GED Authorized Provider to offer the GED exams in Mexico locations.

More than 200,000 students around the world take the GED test every year in order to earn their high school equivalency credential. The test is available in both English and Spanish, and represents an important opportunity for Latin American students seeking an internationally recognized high school diploma.

This agreement helps Kuepa in its continuous effort to provide educational tools and skills for Latin American students. An international recognition, certificate, or degree can be the passport to formal employment at a sustainable wage, with opportunities for further growth.

“This is a great opportunity for our students to earn an internationally recognized high school equivalency degree,” states Gonzalo Pulit, co-founder of Kuepa. “We can now work with our students through the whole process of studying for the GED test through our online and in-person courses, getting their certification, and finding the job they want at the salary they want.”

Online and in-person GED test preparation courses are in extremely high demand among adult learners in Mexico; a demand that continues to grow in proportion to the rising drop-out rates throughout the region. Because of its international recognition, students who earn their GED increase their employment opportunities in the local and global marketplace.

“This is an exciting partnership,” says Nick Laul, Vice President for the GED Testing Service. “This not only increases the presence and availability of the GED program in Latin American, but it will also have a real and tangible impact on adults who want to improve their job prospects and earning potential.”
