Free GED classes offered through NIC
Posted: Wednesday, Jul 2, 2025

Summer GED classes are open for enrollment at the North Idaho College Adult Education Center locations in Coeur d’Alene and Sandpoint.
All tuition and instructional materials are provided for free. New student orientation and placement testing are available.
Students will receive instruction and can work with an instructor in a more personalized setting than traditional lectures. The approach allows students to progress independently at their own pace, focusing on subjects they need to improve.
Summer classes are offered from July 1 through Aug. 28.
Classes in Sandpoint are held on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. with flexible scheduling options available. Classes are held at the NIC at Sandpoint campus, 515 Pine St., Suite G, in Sandpoint. To enroll in classes, call (208) 665-2796.
Coeur d'Alene classes are held Monday through Thursday on the second floor of the Molstead Library on NIC's Coeur d’Alene campus, with morning and afternoon/evening options available. Call the NIC Adult Education Center in Coeur d'Alene at (208) 665-5099 for orientation scheduling.
After orientation, students will meet with an advisor to complete a skills review and schedule classes. There are also online learning options.
Classes are open enrollment. There are not specific deadlines for registration like other classes.
A GED credential, offered to students 16 and up, is proof that you have high school-level education. It is accepted by most colleges, universities and employers as well as many schools and organizations across the world.
