On June 24, 2022 "Governor JB Pritzker signed SB3792 into law, amending the code of multiple acts and agencies to replace references to high school equivalency certificates to State of Illinois High School Diplomas. This change recognizes the equal value of the State of Illinois High School Diploma and will aid Illinois graduates in establishing reciprocity with educational requirements in other states".
