In order to gather current data about the General Educational Development (GED) program at Seminole Community College (SCC), Florida, a random sample of 1982 GED examinees were surveyed to determine the examinees' assessment of the quality of instruction, course materials, and learning laboratories at SCC; the center(s) used most often and for what length of time; the methods of advertisement that were most productive in recruiting students; the main reason for taking the GED Test; the demographic profile of the typical GED student; and the program changes that would lead to improvement. Questionnaires were mailed to 242 graduates and 132 non-graduates of SCC's program who took the GED test in 1982. Study findings, based on responses from 196 graduates and 60 non-graduates, included the following: (1) overall, the non-graduates rated the course materials and instruction lower than the graduates; (2) SCC's special GED labs were used by a small number of the respondents; (3) the best advertising appeared to be word-of-mouth, as relatives and friends were the best sources of information about the GED program; (4) the main reason for taking the GED Test was job-related for the graduates and personal satisfaction for the non-graduates; (5) over 75% of the graduates were employed either full- or part-time, as were 68% of the non-graduates; and (6) over 80% of the examinees would strongly recommend the program to others. A literature review and the questionnaire are included. (Author/LAL)
