It details a two-part structure combining a multiple-choice written test and a job simulation test with realistic audio calls. The booklet describes how candidates record caller and incident details, use maps, and dispatch the correct police unit, while also emphasizing skills under stress. It then breaks down the written test into nine subject areas with question counts and percentages, including coding, charts, fire codes, filing, map reading, grammar, computer skills, telephone skills, and call-log simulation.","PRE-EXAMINATION BOOKLET  \nFOR  \nPOLICE COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER  \nENTRANCE LEVEL EXAMINATION  \nPrepared by the Office of State Examiner Municipal Fire and Police Civil Service Testing and System Services Division Revised 02/2022  \nINTRODUCTION  \nOne of the first steps toward becoming a police communications officer is taking and passing a civil service examination which is administered by the Office of State Examiner for Municipal Fire and Police Civil Service. This booklet will provide you with important information about the examination process, some helpful hints on taking tests, and sample questions that are similar to those on the Police Communications Officer exam.  \nYou do not need to have a previous knowledge of the operations of a police communications center in order to pass this examination. The test has been designed to evaluate knowledge, skills, and abilities that are needed to successfully learn the duties of a police communications officer. For example, much of a police communications officer’s time is spent in listening to communications over the telephone or radio and recording information in a computer database or on a written log sheet. Therefore, part of your exam will consist of listening to simulated police emergency calls and recording information on your log sheet.  \nBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE TEST  \nThe Police Communications Officer test consists of two parts: a multiple-choice written examination and a job simulation test that will be given at the same time.  \nTo closely simulate the job, you will be asked to assume that you are working as a police communications officer. After you have been given specific directions by the examiner, you will begin working on your multiple-choice test. When you hear the recorded simulated messages, you will put aside your written test and write down certain information from the calls onto a log sheet. After you have recorded the necessary information from a call and dispatched the required police unit , you will return to your written test until the next call comes in.  \nJOB SIMULATION TEST  \nMuch of the work handled by police dispatchers involves handling calls from the public and dispatching the correct police units. The job simulation test is designed to closely simulate these work activities. As you are taking your multiple-choice test, you will be periodically interrupted by recorded messages that simulate callers reporting police emergencies. After listening to each call, you are to record the name of the caller, the address of the emergency , the nature of the call, and the time of day on a log sheet. Following procedures given to you during the audio instructions, as well as those printed in the exam folder, you must then locate the address on the map and dispatch the correct police unit to the emergency scene. You will use the information you have recorded on the log sheet later in answering the last section of multiple-choice questions on the written test.  \nThe job simulation portion of the examination is designed to evaluate your ability to follow instructions, to remain calm and perform tasks under stress , as well as your ability to read maps. Also tested in this exercise is your ability to organize your work so that you may best accomplish given objectives.  \nWRITTEN TEST  \nThe written test contains 100 multiple-choice questions and is divided into nine subject areas. You will have 2 hours and 15 minutes to complete the examination.  \nPOLICE COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER  \nWRITTEN TEST CONTENT TABLE  \n\n| SUBJECT AREA | NUMBER QUESTIONS | PERCENTAGE OF EXAM |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Coding | 13 | 13% |\n| Interpreting Charts | 13 | 13% |\n| Fire Codes | 10 | 10% |\n| Filing | 5 | 5% |\n| Map Reading | 3 | 3% |\n| Grammar and Spelling | 8 | 8% |\n| Basic Computer Skills | 10 | 10% |\n| Telephone Skills and Prioritizing Calls | 9 | 9% |\n| Job Simulation – Call Log | 29 | 29% |\n| TOTAL | 100 | 100% |\n\nCODING  \nThis section is designed to evaluate your ability to read, compreh","cbCaiiIz7FQdQS3Q","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiIz7FQdQS3Q","pdf",736848,24,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Brief Description of the Test\n# Job Simulation Test\n# Written Test\n## Written Test Content Table\n## Coding\n## Interpreting Charts\n## Police Codes\n## Filing\n## Map Reading","[{\"question\":\"What are the two parts of the Police Communications Officer entrance level exam?\",\"answer\":\"The exam includes a multiple-choice written examination and a job simulation test delivered at the same time.\"},{\"question\":\"What happens during the job simulation test?\",\"answer\":\"Recorded messages simulate emergency calls.
