online learning & job links
gathered from around the internet
This list of free online learning options can be accessed by any student at any time. You can pick sites you like and skills you need to work on. You can also enroll in the KET GED classes and complete courses by watching TV and online videos if you have a high-speed internet connection. More information is available here for the KET GED classes.
In addition to these free online learning options, we have an official program called ITTS for online learning. You can complete all your learning hours at home this way if you're unable to come to our center regularly. More information about the official ITTS online learning option here.
