Which two examination programs can be used for earning college credit?

The correct answer identifies the Defense Activity for Nontraditional Education Support (DANTES) and the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) as the two examination programs that can be utilized to earn college credit.

DANTES facilitates the evaluation of military training and experiences for college credit, enabling service members to receive recognition for their learning outside formal education institutions. The CLEP exams allow individuals to demonstrate their proficiency in a variety of subjects, granting credits similar to achieving a passing grade in a course. Together, these programs provide flexible opportunities for service members to expedite their educational journeys, potentially reducing the time and cost of obtaining a degree.

Other options mentioned, like SAT and ACT, are standardized tests primarily used for college admissions rather than directly providing college credit for knowledge or learning. The GRE is designed for admission to graduate programs and also does not confer undergraduate college credit.
