Lottery system and you have to attend their academy no waivers. Good luck (no sarcasm there, heard they're a great department)!

It is a great department.

The lottery system is a bummer but I see why they do it.

The academy no waiver thing is funny to me, they ask if you’re a full time police officer a “different” academy might be offered for you, but they never do. Lol

Their contract offers a "Soup Emergency". IF it gets too cold, typically under 32 degrees you get a mandated soup break. Just something funny about their contract. :lol:

I have not. If testing is postponed, I expect the selection and notifications of who will test will also be delayed.

From the recruitment website:

“Our original plan was to hold the primary written testing period for those selected to move forward from April 7 – April 14, with limited testing availability from April 15 – May 3. We are monitoring the situation with the Coronavirus pandemic closely and are evaluating the timing for the written test now.”

Yea i have not heard anything either. I still wonder why they asked in the application if we were PTC certified? Do they plan on waiving people? I doubt it but I really hope so if I am selected.
