We encourage you to consider taking our PARE, FITCO or PREP workshop to help you reach your goal and to be better prepared prior to testing.  We have evaluated and trained several thousand applicants. 

The protocols of the physical ability tests involve abilities and require a clear understanding of the evaluation. When you attend a workshop we can help you learn the test protocols and save valuable seconds from your time. A workshop is also an excellent opportunity to evaluate your abilities prior to testing and improve training for success.

As per NEW HIRING and PREP Testing guidelines.

ALL CANDIDATES ARE TO DO PREP TESTING to satisfy stage 2 of the OPS hiring process.

In order to provide a safe & friendly environment we are testing by providing small group sessions.  We encourage you to be proactive in booking your testing date.   

NOTE: OPS will be announcing soon that the PREP Certificate of Results will be necessary at Stage 2.  (Fall 2022)

As per the OPS website:

Stage 2.  Fitness Assessment

Sworn New Recruits

A valid Physical Readiness Evaluation for Police (PREP) certificate is required to progress in the selection process. Once an applicant is screened in, they will have 90 days to provide proof of a successful PREP test. Information regarding the PREP can be found on PoliceFit.ca.

It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the PREP prior to submitting your application to increase your chance of success.

Applicants that have a valid PREP test certificate may submit it at the time of application.  PREP certificates are only valid for 6 months from the date of issue.

If hired, candidates will have one successful PREP certification reimbursed.

*Please note: Fitness is a very important requirement of being able to perform the duties of a police officer.  It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure their fitness level is at the standard throughout the process and failing to do so may result in delays or disqualification from the process.

 

Police Fit Canada provides PIN and the 20 Meter Shuttle Run assessments at the Cornwall Civic Complex located at 100 Water Street East, Cornwall, Ontario.  K6H 6G4

We will post signage at the main doors indicating which area/salon, within the Civic Complex, is being used for testing.

The following link provides the audio recording for the Leger 20 Meter Shuttle Run.   Please note that this is the official recording used for all testing.

Aerobic Shuttle Run

The Aerobic Fitness Test of the PREP requires the completion of thhttps://www.opp.ca/index.php?&lng=en&id=115&entryid=5e175909241f6e7a96238623e 20-metre Shuttle Run, which is designed to evaluate aerobic fitness and work capability during physically demanding policing tasks as well as everyday policing activities.

In this test, you run back and forth between two marked lines over a 20-metre course in time with taped audio signals. The time permitted at the beginning of the test to cover the 20-metre distance requires a slow jog. Thereafter, for each 20-metres, the time between audio signals lessens, requiring that you pick up your running pace. The audio signal informs you of the “stage” you are at as the test progresses.

In each leg of the shuttle run, warning lines, placed 2 metres before each of the 20-metre end lines, must be reached before the permitted time elapses and the audio signal sounds.

An examiner will caution you if you fail to cross a warning line in time. The test ends when you miss two consecutive warning lines.

To successfully complete the minimum requirement of the aerobic fitness test you must achieve Stage 7.0 in the 20-metre Shuttle Run.  

Level seven (7) is the standard for the PREP

Level four and a half (4.5) is the standard for the FITCO

Special Constable Applicants with the Cornwall Police Service (CPS) will have their level recorded (Level 1 to 7) on the Certificate of Results.

An acceptable score on the Aerobic Shuttle Run component requires approximately the same level of fitness as running 2.4 km (1.5 miles) in 11.5 minutes for a level 7.

Strategy for the Shuttle Run

While performing the shuttle run it is important to pace yourself at the beginning. The early stages of the test can be completed with a quick walk. It is best to pace yourself so that as you reach the opposite side, you can immediately turn around and return the other way. As the pace of the tones increases, increase the pace of your run. This will give your muscles a chance to warm-up. It is a mistake to sprint in the early stages of the test and wait for the return signal.  By practicing the Shuttle Run we encourage you to pace yourself to arrive at the 20m line at the sound of the audio signal.

I booked a test and can't make it or no longer need to do it... can I get my money refunded or change my date & time?

Unfortunately not. The number of participants is limited at each test, your commitment to attending may have prevented others from attending that session or having a priority status.

PLEASE note that due to limited numbers per session  you remain committed to your testing. An injury, not feeling "ready", a sickness or work schedule conflict, to name a few, remains your responsibility to assume. You will need to pay for another testing.  

Due to the nature of our service we rely on the number of registrations for staffing, booking of facilities and operations.

You are choosing a spot for a testing that has a limited number of spaces. You will NOT be reimbursed once registered.

 Please be sure of your availability and status prior to booking.

Your registration is a commitment that you will be attending what you have scheduled for testing. If you are not sure of being prepared, of your availability or your wanting to be tested then please do not book.

Due to the nature of testing Police Fit Canada reserves the right to stop a candidate from continuing the test if the administrator deems the candidate unprepared for testing. In this case, the candidate will not be reimbursed testing fees.

Please do not book multiple dates because you fear you will not pass. We do not refund if you reserve multiple test dates. Please remember that we adhere to strict protocols regarding the number of applicants being tested per session.

Thank you for your understanding & please stay safe

Police Fit Canada Team

Police Fit Canada continues to work closely with recruiters and several agencies to assure accurate information is being provided and that we are preparing successful applicants. (RCMP, OPP, OPS, PPS, CPS, UN, MP, CBSA, Correctional Services, Ontario Ministry of the Solicitor General, Ottawa Fire Service... to name a few)

We will greet you at our testing facility.

We are pleased to offer workshops to facilitate testing.  On October 31st, 2015 the PREP had undergone several changes in Ontario.  Police Fit Canada's administrators are certified in the new protocols and offer workshops to help candidates better prepare for testing.  Recent studies indicate that candidates increase their chance of passing the PREP, by over 30%, when they attend a preparation workshop.

As of January 7, 2020 Police Fit Canada is now providing the PREP Testing for the Ottawa Police Service and other agencies.  Police Fit Canada is working closely with several  municipal police services, para-police, Ministries and  services in preparing candidates for their physical testing.  The OPP has chosen to use the PASS test rather then the PREP at this time for recruiting purposes.  Please note that the Ontario Police College continues to use the PREP as the minimum physical standard to graduate OPC.

Police Fit Canada offers two separate options for workshops;

1- Group workshops are scheduled regularly throughout the year; ($49 + HST per participant)

2- Additional free  workshops are available to candidates who have been identified by a sponsoring Police Service, Ministry of Corrections or other agency.  Sponsored workshops occur every 2-3 months throughout the year.

The clearance for PARE, PREP, PIN, 20 Meter Shuttle Run & FITCO Testing will be provided when you arrive at the testing facility;

-The Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q+)

-The PARE, PREP, PIN, 20 Meter Shuttle Run & FITCO Informed Consent

-Questions relating to physical fitness and health in relation to testing or workshop

-Pre-test measures/information (i.e.: resting blood pressure, heart rate, height, weight, age, gender) As per protocols regarding COVID-19

We respect that you may want to have someone with you for support but we focus all our attention on candidates.  It is for this reason that we keep our numbers small during  testing and workshops.  We do not have any public seating within the PARE, FITCO and PREP facilities.  

Protocols restrict anyone from accompanying a registered applicant into the La Cité-911 Institute testing facilities..

Our PARE, PREP,  and FITCO workshops cost $49.00 + hst.

We strive to provide all candidates the best opportunity to succeed the PARE,FITCO or  PREP by the applicant, the opportunity to experience the testing in a controlled environment.  Due to COVID-19 we are presently offering limited workshops.

The goal of the workshop is to help the applicant assess physical abilities.  An explanation of the protocols will be demonstrated.  Candidates will have the opportunity to practice various components of the test but will be limited to what the facilitator deems reasonable.

The workshop is a preparation tool that helps candidate determine areas of training requiring further improvement. 

It is at the discretion of the facilitator to limit the practice performance time on an individual basis.

Police Fit Canada reserves the right to limit the physical activity of a participant, at any time, during a workshop.

Additional Sponsored Workshops are provided and made available through various services/agencies.  Candidates will be made aware of the Sponsored Worshops by the agency/service.

The group workshops are approximately 1.5 hours.  We provide a complete breakdown of the testing and offer several important recommendations for passing and achieving your best time.

The Police Fit Canada facilitators have prepared and tested over 100 000 applicants for PARE, FITCO, POPAT and PREP testing. You will have a clear understanding of the police physical test, how to improve your time and how to better your training to achieve success.

Consider us part of your Team

Please review our Q & A on our website.  We have streamlined the answers so you will have the most updated information possible. 

We ask that you to visit our website for continuous updates.  As testing demands fluctuate we add dates and times for testing and workshops.

The Agency's Physical Abilities Standard test is a screening tool used to assess a person's ability to perform the physically demanding use of force training that is taught as part of the Officer Induction Training Program.

Candidates are required to complete the Physical Abilities Requirement Evaluation (PARE) test during the CBSA officer trainee (developmental) selection process. This test is used by several law enforcement agencies and other government departments throughout Canada.

Candidates must complete the PARE test in 4:45 minutes or less. Meeting this standard is an operational requirement for recruits to be appointed to the CBSA officer trainee (developmental) position.

Candidates must provide proof of successful completion of the PARE at the interview. Failure to do so will result in the candidate's elimination from further consideration and will have to re-apply to the selection process.
