What You Will Learn

The Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT) is designed to identify people who are physically able to perform essential job tasks at fire scenes. Successful CPAT participants will be given a certificate verifying successful completion of the test. This certificate will facilitate the hiring process for departments requiring successful CPAT completion. The following items are required to take the CPAT: Photo I.D., long pants, and tennis shoes.

Register online or call 913-469-2323 to register by phone, Fire Science personnel will call you to schedule a TIME SLOT FOR THE TEST. If you have any questions feel free to contact us a 913-469-8500 ext. 6746.

CPAT candidates are required to attend two timed practice sessions, however, there is a waiver form on which they can waive their right to practice when they arrive on test day.
