CPAT or BIDDLE Extra Credit

Greetings to all,

Chapter 1 covers the firefighter recruitment and the steps involved from start to finish. One of the steps includes the candidate physical ability test (CPAT). In the face to face class we watch the attached video and discuss the process that many fire academies and fire departments require. Take time to view the video below to better understand the physical requirements for fire academy recruits and pre-employment requirements of many fire departments. Students in my face to face classes can earn 50 points of extra credit if they attempt to complete a CPAT or BIDDLE test during this semester. Evidence of your participation from the CPAT or BIDDLE exam will be required. Good Luck!
