Provincial Testing

About Provincial Testing  

Results

Annual reports are provided province-wide for Diploma Examination Results for the entire school year; that is, for the November, January, April, June and August examinations combined. Additionally, these reports provide summaries of multiyear results as well as results by gender and for subgroups.

This section contains the Achievement Testing Results. Alberta Education and school authority personnel are responsible for ensuring that high-quality education is provided to all students in the province. Information about achievement is provided to schools and school authorities, parents, and the public, so that they may know how well students in their schools are meeting local targets and provincial expectations.

High School Equivalency Diploma Information Bulletin (GED)
Many Albertans who did not complete a formal high school education may have achieved, through years of experience, an educational maturity equivalent to a minimum requirement for a high school diploma. Alberta Education provides an opportunity for such persons to earn a High School Equivalency Diploma in one of two ways: by accumulating the necessary credits or by writing the GED Tests.
