As a Blue Cross Complete member, you have access to the Mission GED program.

You’ll be paired with a Blue Cross Complete coach for as long as you’re in the program. They’ll help connect you with online resources and check in with you periodically to provide encouragement and answer questions about the testing process. When you’re ready to take the test, your coach will help you find a testing location and provide vouchers for the GED^® Ready Test, GED^® Subject Test and any retake tests you need.
