If I was to homeschool my kids through high school, I could issue a diploma myself, and it would be just as valid as if they went to any public or private high school in the country. I do not have to get the diploma accredited by any specific agency for it to be valid. So, I'm not really sure your brother has to have an "accredited" diploma in order for him to be considered a high school graduate.
Also, I'm not really sure why you're asking about a high school diploma AND a GED. Those are 2 separate things, and if your brother got his diploma, then he wouldn't need a GED. If he got his GED, he wouldn't need a diploma. So you may need to clarify which one he received.
Apologies, the GED was a what if scenario if the school he was looking at would have allowed it. My brother read your post and said thanks for the information, what he is going to do is get a hold of the school and see if the diploma will be accepted, because there are schools that are not accepting the diploma.
