National External Diploma Program (NEDP)
Earn your high school diploma without counting class credits or test scores!
Designed for self-directed students with life and work experience, NEDP is an individualized, computer-based program that allows students to attain a local diploma by utilizing their experience to complete a series of tasks and build a portfolio. This program does not count credits nor test scores. Students work independently to complete tasks that parallel job and life situations such as financial literacy, health literacy, and the twenty-first century workplace. Students will meet weekly with an assessor to demonstrate progress while having multiple opportunities to show mastery of academic skills in core subject areas. This program can be done remotely or at any of our sites. Find out more on the National NEDP website
