Fire Service Promotion Written Exams
Our F.I.R.E. rank promotion exams identify candidates that display significant managerial and decision-making knowledge and analyze additional traits vital for successful leadership.
Rank-level exams were developed from I.F.S.T.A. and other fire service related materials, selected managerial and supervisory text as well as comprehension and decision making assessments. Our exams meet all governing legislation, and are valid, reliable and fair to all.
Fire Service Custom Written Promotion Exam
Adding a custom written test developed from your own operations policy and procedure manual or other in-house materials will enhance and personalize your promotion exam. Conducting a policy and procedures exam will provide added insight into how well your staff understands the policies that govern their daily responsibilities.
Our professional test developers will create a custom written promotion exam taken from the information stipulated in your department’s standard operations procedures manual. The Standard Operating Procedures Exam is personalized to the particular requirements of each department. It enables supervisors to identify every candidate’s level of knowledge pertaining to reqired operation procedures.
The Standard Operating Procedures Exam is scored as part of the entire written test battery generating an overall numerical score that represents the achievement of each candidate participating in the testing process. Your management team can easily review each individual’s accomplishments on the Candidate Profile Report provided. The report indicates their success, by bar graph, for each dimension evaluated.
Required time to develop and produce your custom exam is four to six weeks from recieving your printed resource material
