PREP Testing - Ottawa, Ontario
The PREP helps to ensure that a candidate has the physical abilities to take on the duties of a police officer. The PREP consists of a health-related questionnaire and a two-part physical skills and abilities test (Pursuit Restraint and Aerobic Shuttle Run). You must pass the screening criteria on the health questionnaire to proceed to the PREP physical abilities tests.
Participants over 45 years of age and/or answer 'Yes' to one of 7 questions on the PAR-Q & You + form must complete the PARmed-X form with their family physician before being given the opportunity to do the PREP Test.
