High School Equivalency

[jamles]

My GF quit high school after finishing ninth grade, M3, many years ago and may be interested in a G.S.N. program which I understand from an old TV thread is the Thai equivalent to the US GED. Does anyone have any further information on this program? What are the admission requirements? How long does it take to complete? How often are classes held? Where is it offered? What is the cost? Where to get more info?

Every sunday at various education centres. Takes 4 years. Anyone can go. Ask at your amphur office for the local address. She will need the certificate of completion for the last year of school she completed if she doesnt wat to do it all again.

Informal Education Centers.

Your girlfriend should be able to find info about it.

Thanks for the replies. I'll have my girlfriend check with the amphur office.

You can also ask at the local high school, if that is more convenient for you.

Who wants who to go back to school?

Does your gf want to do it or do you want her to do it? How old is she? What is the reason for whoever has made this decision? It's not free so I assume you'll be paying?

What is the end goal?

My wife (mid 30s) is just over half way through high school catch-up, after she finishes she can choose to go to university in CM.

High school catch-up is almost totally free, about 500bht a year for the uniform and a bit more for occasional art materials.

High school diploma enables her a far wider choice of employment.

Degree will offer her even more options.
