WRITTEN TESTING / CPAT
Why do this? | What is the cost? | How does the process work?
EOC Technology Center has agreed to host a consortium of OKC metro area fire departments that are teaming up to offer a fire fighter written exam. Following the written exam, EOC Technology will host candidate physical agility testing (CPAT). Following the completion of these two tests, each department will have the opportunity to interview candidates to fill open fire fighter positions.
This process will help lessen the load, both in time an financially, from metro fire departments as they go through the hiring process!!!!!
WHAT IS THE COST TO FIRE DEPARTMENTS FOR TAKING PART IN THIS PROCESS?
- Virtually nothing ($0) other than some manpower to help host both the written test and the CPAT!!!!!
- This process will save metro fire departments time and budget and make the hiring process much easier. We welcome all metro departments to join the consortium and take advantage of this process.
- Contact Alan Sanders for more information
Participating consortium departments are as follows:
| Bethany | Midwest City | Norman | Wewoka | |
| Chandler | El Reno | Mustang | Ponca City | Will Rogers World Airport |
| Chickasha | Guthrie | Newcastle | Shawnee | Yukon |
| Cushing | Jenks | Nichols Hills | Stillwater | |
| Del City | Kingfisher | Noble | The Villlage | |
Note: Not all departments have openings during any given testing cycle. This will vary for each department and their internal hiring needs at a particular time.
