Tough economic times in the private sector have prompted many out of work to consider a career in government, but those without a high school diploma may find that door is closed. However, help is on the way from Netspan Group (www.netspangroup.com), a company nationally known for offering comprehensive test preparation for post office, law enforcement and civil service jobs.
Netspan Group has added preparation for General Educational Development (GED) Tests to its range of services.
"We are very excited about the launch of our new GED product," said Marc Mansel, Netspan Group's President and CEO. "Many customers we communicate with each day, unfortunately, do not qualify for certain government level jobs because they do not have a high school diploma or GED. We have to turn these potential customers away because they lack this certification, so we decided offering this product would be a great way to help them get qualified for these jobs."
Offering preparation for GED Tests is a good fit for both Netspan Group and its potential customers, explained Mansel.
"To date, we have over 60,000 satisfied customers and felt adding the GED product to our current inventory would not only continue to help us grow, but offer customers an opportunity to advance their education and careers" he said. "I felt it was a win-win situation."
The fee for GED test prep (http://www.netspangroup.com/ged_faqs.html) is $49.50 plus tax, shipping and handling. Testing components include cognitive skills, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation.
The package includes an 888-page comprehensive study guide with CD, several practice exams, a listing of all GED Administrators for each of the 50 states, and a zip code lookup via the company's Web site that helps customers find a testing center in their area.
Netspan Group also maintains a fully trained customer service department.
"Whether a customer is needing assistance with navigating through our Web site to find and apply for jobs online, questions about the testing procedures, locations where certain exams are being offered, or to simply receive a tracking number for their order, we are there to help from 7:30 a.m.-10 p.m. EST," said Mansel, adding that, "Our success is built upon a solid foundation of great customer service agents who are willing to take that extra step to help our customers with any questions or concerns they may have."
