PRLog - Sep. 9, 2014 - ST. LOUIS -- National Testing Network (NTN), the leader in outsourced testing for public safety departments announces a new testing location in St. Louis, Missouri, in partnership with St. Louis Community College, located at 3400 Pershall Street, St. Louis, MO 63135.
This new testing location will deliver firefighter, law enforcement, corrections officer and emergency communications officer applicant testing services.
NTN’s testing service has been proven to be more convenient for local job seekers, and allows public safety departments to greatly reduce their applicant screening costs.
National Testing Network is allowing candidates across several Mid-West states to have access to multiple times and dates to take their entry-level placement exams for public safety job openings. By breaking down the testing barriers, and enabling candidates to test in a central location at a convenient time for them, NTN makes the testing process candidate centric.
“NTN delivers a more cost effective testing and selection model for both candidates and departments,” said National Testing Network President, Carl Swander, Ph.D. “By offering continuous testing, National Testing Network has elevated candidate satisfaction in the testing process, while delivering increased diversity and higher quality candidates to departments.”
National Testing Network is the sister company of Ergometrics & Applied Personnel Research, Inc., an organization with 33 years of expertise in testing public service professions, specializing in video-simulated testing designed to expose applicants to real experiences they would encounter on the job.
The tests are specifically designed to identify applicants with the necessary decision making skills and critical thinking aptitude to perform well in a career in public safety.
The new testing location will offer entry-level testing for local city, county and state agencies looking to enhance their application process through a centralized, outsourced, testing location. The St. Louis location will complement NTN’s test centers in the Mid-West, in Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, and Arkansas, and will serve public service agencies and applicants located throughout the region.
NTN offers rapid applicant score reports, making applicant’s test scores available through a password secured on-line portal. This allows NTN to provide public safety departments with the most current applicant information, and the necessary test score data to quickly make sound hiring decisions.
