DANTES is associated with which function?

• A. Defense Activity for Non Traditional Education Support
• B. Department of Education for Non-Traditional Education Support
• C. Defense Administration for Non-Technical Education Services
• D. Defense Activity for Non-Topical Educational Support

Answer: (A)

DANTES stands for Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support, and its function is to provide education support for military members through non-traditional pathways. This includes administering standardized tests (like CLEP/DSST), offering counseling, and guiding access to educational opportunities worldwide. The wording in this choice directly reflects both the organization’s name and its mission to support education outside the traditional classroom within the DoD. The other options don’t match the actual name or purpose, as they either misstate the department or alter the organization’s scope.
