All classes are offered completely free of charge.

This program is especially effective for those that have a flexible schedule to meet during class time.
National External Diploma Program (NEDP)
SBLC also offers the NEDP, an applied performance assessment system that assesses the high school level skills of adults in life and work contexts.
NEDP awards the same Maryland High School Diploma as passing the GED test or completing traditional high school.
