We all know there are individuals who can thrive in your program without a high school education. But it’s hard to know who’s ready and who needs a little more training.
Here’s the answer.
The Ability-to-Benefit Test or “ATB Test" is an all-inclusive, non-proctored exam designed by the U.S. Department of Education to help identify students who possess the basic skills necessary to succeed in a post-secondary education program, but who lack a high school diploma.
The best part?
Qualified Ability-to-Benefit students are eligible for Federal financial assistance under Title IV.
