Written Testing
The EPS Recruiting and Selection Unit conducts regular written testing sessions. After submission of a complete application package, suitable applicants will be contacted by a member of the Recruiting and Selection Unit to schedule the testing date for two exams — the Alberta Communication Test (ACT) and the Alberta Police Cognitive Ability Test (APCAT). Applicants must bring one piece of photo identification and their social insurance number to the exams session.
Remember: An applicant’s professionalism is being assessed from the very beginning. Make sure to arrive on time and dress in appropriate business attire.
Successful completion of both the ACT and APCAT exams will advance an applicant on to Stage 3. Successful completion of these tests with other Alberta policing agencies allows the applicant to proceed directly to Stage 3. Passing scores for each of the ACT and APCAT are valid for five years.
