Pre-employment Physical Agility Testing for corrections:

Work Sample Test Battery (WSTB):
a. 99 yard obstacle course
b. 165 lb Body Drag 32ft
c. Chain Link Fence Climb 6ft
d. Solid Wall Climb 6ft
e. 500 Yard Sprint
f. 1.5 mile run (completed in 14 minutes or less)

g. 165 lb Body Lift

The established qualifying score for most agencies is set at 320 as its minimum entry level requirement for the WSTB phase and a 14 minute maximum time for the 1.5 mile run. (Tests are given rain or shine.)

Except for the inclusion of a 1.5 mile run, the physical agility test otherwise mirrors the WSTB physical agility test standard required for graduation from a California P.O.S.T. accredited peace officer academy.

Please sign up for any of our standard WSTB Tests.
