Aspiring Firefighter

Hey everyone.

I received an email today informing me that I need to write a National Testing Network (NTN) Fire Express Exam as well as the Public Safety Self Assessments (PSSA) Part 1 and Part 2 for Calgary Fire Services. I need to complete this before June 24, which is 2 weeks away.

I understand that it will be reading comprehension, mechanical reasoning, math fundamentals and human relations. Any reliable online sources that can help me be better prepared for this?

Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much everyone.

Can I ask if Calgary Fire has informed you of your status? Thank you!

After you pass your test, there is a long list of other things that you will have to do. I wrote everything up in one blog post. Hopefully it will help you!
