Onsego moved its CAEC prep courses (for the new Canadian high school equivalency test) to Cansego.ca.
Today, Onsego focuses fully on online GED prep classes for students preparing for the U.S. GED test.
Cansego.ca helps Canadian students prepare for and pass the CAEC exam.
Does Onsego Offer CAEC Prep?
Not anymore. Onsego offers online GED prep only. CAEC prep is offered exclusively through Cansego.ca.
Both programs were developed by the same team of educators, but they are different.
Why Did Onsego Develop CAEC Prep?
Onsego originally provided GED prep for both U.S. and Canadian students, including preparation for the Canadian GED test.
When Canada replaced the GED with the CAEC in May 2024, Onsego developed a new CAEC prep program to continue supporting Canadian learners.
In March 2025, this CAEC prep program was transferred to Cansego.ca, a dedicated platform for Canadian students.
Is the GED Test the Same as the CAEC Test?
No, the GED and CAEC tests are different.
While both tests measure high school-level skills, the CAEC was developed specifically for Canada.
The CAEC includes Canadian history, government, Indigenous perspectives, and other topics that are not covered by the GED.
The GED test focuses on U.S. education standards and includes four subjects, while the CAEC has five separate subject tests.
Because of these differences, GED prep materials are not a good fit for CAEC preparation.
Students preparing for the CAEC should use prep programs designed for the CAEC test specifically.
Is the CAEC Available in the USA?
No, the CAEC test is only available in Canada.
Canadian provinces and territories use the CAEC as their official high school equivalency test.
In the United States, the GED test remains the primary high school equivalency exam.
Students living in the U.S. who need a diploma must prepare for and pass the GED test, not the CAEC.
How Onsego Works
Onsego offers an online, self-paced GED prep course.
The program covers all four GED subjects: Mathematical Reasoning, Reasoning Through Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies.
Students can move through the lessons at their own pace, take practice tests to check their progress, and focus on the topics they need to improve.
Onsego’s prep is designed to align closely with the official GED test to help students earn a U.S. high school equivalency diploma.
Lessons are short and easy to follow, and students can access everything online without needing to attend in-person classes.
Onsego also provides guidance on scheduling and taking the official GED test once students feel ready.
