NEW YORK - Aug. 7, 2023 - PRLog -- GED Testing Service presented three GED graduates from New York with the 2023 GED Graduate of the Year award during the GED Testing Service Annual Conference, held in New York City.

This award recognizes students who recently earned their GED credentials, displayed exceptional dedication during the preparation and testing process, and demonstrate outstanding stewardship in their community.
