The University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) on Offutt Air Force Base (AFB) is proud to announce that its testing center has been honored with the CLEP® Honors Military Achievement award for the second consecutive year. This recognition comes as a testament to the dedication and commitment of military service members stationed on Offutt AFB and beyond, who have strived to advance their educational goals through the DANTES-funded CLEP testing program.

The CLEP Honors Military Achievement award was presented to the UNO on Offutt AFB Testing Center at a reception held in Las Vegas in August. This accolade is part of the annual College Board program that acknowledges CLEP test centers for their outstanding contributions in administering high volumes of CLEP exams. These exams provide students of all ages with the opportunity to earn college credits, ultimately saving them time and money on their journey toward attaining college degrees.

The UNO on Offutt AFB Testing Center stood out among the top 20 CLEP Military Test Centers nationwide, having administered the highest CLEP exam volumes during the 2022-23 school year. This remarkable achievement reflects the dedication and hard work of the testing center's staff, who have consistently supported military personnel in their pursuit of higher education.

This is the second year in a row that our test center has been awarded the Military Honors Achievement.  This is a testament to the dedication of our military servicemembers stationed on Offutt AFB and abroad for striving to advance through DANTES-funded CLEP testing.  I look forward to continuing this success next year and the years beyond by continuing to help DANTES-funded military testers with their needs.”

 Nate Jackson, Transition Specialist and Test Administrator at UNO on Offutt AFB
