New Jersey law enforcement entry exam
to be announced in July
There will be an updated and revised law
enforcement entry exam (LEEE) given in New Jersey for 2016.
According to the New Jersey Civil Service Commission (NJCSC), applications are tentatively
scheduled to be available online July 1st. The New
Jersey LEEE is tentatively scheduled for late 2016.
The company that will be giving the revised exam
DR. JEFF
has extensive experience in police entry testing. The
BERNSTIEN same entry exam is expected to be used for the
police, sheriff and corrections titles.
The company has previously used a three-part written entry
exam. The name of the exam is the “Law Enforcement Aptitude Battery” or LEAB. The LEAB, which was developed by a psychologist
measures thinking skills, personal work styles and motivation. These
areas are formally referred to as:
Ability Test
The Cognitive Ability Test will consist of multiple-choice questions
designed to test a series of abilities, such as written comprehension,
problem sensitivity and reasoning. These have been determined to
be important for the effective performance of entry-level law
enforcement officers in New Jersey.
Work Styles Questionnaire – Personality Assessment
The Work Styles Questionnaire is designed to assess a candidate’s
motivational, value-related and attitudinal characteristics. Candidates are asked questions about things that they like, believe in
and things that they do. This section of the exam is worth more
points than any other
Life Experience Survey – Biographical Data
The Life Experience Survey, or Background Information Test,
consists of a series of multiple-choice questions related to candidates’ past history and experience.
According to the test-maker, each instrument is matched to the
job requirements and each assesses a variety of underlying characteristics important in the performance of the duties and
responsibilities of law enforcement officers.
For 30 years Bernstein and Associates has been preparing men
and women for public safety positions. To best prepare for the
new exam, candidates should attend a professional seminar with
proven results. Interested candidates should also watch the video
which describes the entry exam at www.BernsteinTestPrep.com.

Best of luck to all who are competing for a position. d
