Airmen wait their turn to test during a CLEP-a-thon Feb. 13 on Ramstein. The weeklong event held by the education center gave Airmen the opportunity to take CLEPs and DSSTs on the spot with more than 700 tests being completed and 1,671 college credits earned. The credits earned go toward the individual’s Community College of the Air Force degree or any upper-level degree they may be working toward with the convenience of not having to schedule test dates weeks in advance.
