A new high school equivalency program developed to replace GED tests. The CAEC is a reliable indicator of Canadian adults' level of educational achievement equivalent to Grade 12 diploma. Individuals who did not finish high school can register to take a series of five CAEC tests which, when successfully passed, allow them to receive a PEI Grade 12 equivalency diploma.

The following five subject areas are covered:

• Mathematics
• Reading
• Social studies
• Science
• Writing

CAEC test outcomes and sample tests are available to review online.

Qualified candidates for Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) can be exempt from writing a CAEC subject test since PLAE recognizes learning gained outside of the CAEC tests. Visit website for full details.

Accommodations are available to support candidates that are related to a medically diagnosed condition or extenuating circumstances. Visit website for full details.

Note: The GED will continue to be a recognized credential. For current GED holders, the credential remains valid and does not expire.
