What is it exactly? I applied with my local fire department and recieved a letter stating that I had to attend a mandatory CPAT Orientation.
Am I correct in that assumption? I just want to be ready for it if, infact, it is the actual test Thanks for any advice! Tags: None. Comment Post Cancel. If they have multiple practices, go to every one you can. Familiarity is the best way to come out with a better time. Wear long pants, it's required because of the search and rescue portion. Other than that, stuff you would work out in. Still, not knowing what doing each event feels like could easily result in failure.
Event 1: Stair Climb. Add 25 lbs. Grabbing the railing is a failable offense after a warning so you need to be familiar with the rate and balance of the weight. Event 2: Hose Drag. The only event you are allowed to run in, so run. Grab the hose, pull it 75' around a barrel and another 25'.
Kneel inside a box and pull 50' of hose to you. Once you kneel, don't shift. Getting out of the kneel is a failure. Event 3: Equipment Carry. Two saws are in a cabinet. CPAT tests must be scheduled online in advance -- test-day registration or rescheduling is not accepted. Additional practice days can also be scheduled separately for an additional fee.
All fees are non-refundable. Rescheduling your test: Candidates may reschedule their test date up to two business days beforehand without penalty.
Candidates may cancel their test, but will forfeit their testing fees. No-shows : If you do not show up on your scheduled test day, your fee is forfeited.
If you want to schedule another test day, you will have to pay the full fee again. Orientations give candidates information regarding the test to maximize their probability for success. During these sessions, the candidates view the CPAT Orientation Video to gain exposure to each of the eight CPAT events, receive a walkthrough of the course with hands-on exposure to the CPAT equipment, and receive information on conditioning programs and techniques to help them prepare for the test.
The CPAT Orientation provides an opportunity for each candidate to view and try each test event, talk with instructors and physically examine test equipment, tools, and props in a controlled and consistent setting. You may attempt the course that day.
If you pass, your CPAT card will be issued to you at that time. Do you offer private practice sessions? We offer private sessions. You may attempt the course the day you attend Orientation.
What happens if I fail the test? You may re-test as many times as you would like.
