2018/2019 Police Sergeant’s Exam to be Administered

October 1, 2018  - By Joe Hefferon
The wait is over! The New Jersey Civil Service Commission (NJ CSC) announced that the 2018/2019 Police Sergeant's examination will be tentatively administered in February of 2019. According to the announcement, officers who are eligible to take the exam must apply on their website before 4:00pm on October 22, 2018. The NJ CSC Police Sergeant's examination applications can be found by clicking here. The exam is typically open to those who possess 3 years of experience as of January 31, 2019.    

ESPOS will be holding a course specifically for this exam!  In addition to our traditional learning methods, we will complete an in-depth review of the video-based portion of the exam.  This will include multiple practice videos and simulated exams that will combine the written exam and video-based exam.  Both day classes and evening classes are available to assist you in preparing for this test.  The full course schedule can be found by clicking here and registration can be completed online by clicking here.  

What is on the 2018/2019 Police Sergeant's Exam?
The exam will be a combination of multiple-choice and video based scenarios on legal topics, directives and other areas. The "potential source material" for the 2018/2019 Police Sergeant's Exam includes:
  • NJ Title 2C (Criminal Code)
  • NJ Title 39 (Motor Vehicle Law)
  • Case Law (Arrest, Search and Seizure)
  • NJ Attorney General Guidelines and Directives
The orientation guide for this test also indicates that the exam may consist of other areas in addition to those listed above.  For example, this exam may include simulated reports and mock policies that candidates will review and then answer questions as if they were the Sergeant reviewing the material as part of their duties.

The written portion of the exam will be in multiple-choice format and will consist of fact patterns and stimulus material based in part on the "potential source material."  Some questions will be scenario based and others will be conceptual items that examine a candidate's ability to select the best or worst option available.

The video-based portion of the exam is made up of a series of short videos where each candidate is asked questions based on what they have learned during each video segment. Candidates are told to assume that they are a Police Sergeant for the video-based portion of the exam and are then presented with video segments that will relay information as they would in the "real-world."  After each segment, candidates are provided with questions to answer based on the video and in some cases based on the "potential source material."  The questions for this portion of the exam also examine the ability of the candidate to determine what is required or not required after viewing the video. Finally, the video-based portion of the sergeant's exam may also test the judgement of those taking the exam by asking what is essential or not essential with respect to each video segment.
