This third edition has been comprehensively revised, expanding the information in the previous edition by updating the preparation for effective performance in an assessment center process. Tra-ditional managerial policies still apply, with potential candidates advised in detail concerning the strategies for successful preparedness and participation in assessment testing. While the In-Basket preparation and process continues to be the backbone of assessment testing, this new edition offers additional information relating to performance knowledge including a fundamental set of rules and guidelines for participation. An entire chapter is devoted to developing performance testing strategies from a simplified written examination to the complexity of performing in a multilevel-multidimensional assessment testing process. This book presents the background evolution and the rationale needed by law enforcement to actively participate in this area for hiring and promotion.

This review is from: Police Assessment Testing: An Assessment Center Handbook for Law Enforcement Personnel (Hardcover)
Very useful information. This book is good for 10-25 points on your score. If you have never sat for an assessment center this book will take away some of the mystery and give you the advantage.

This review is from: Police Assessment Testing: An Assessment Center Handbook for Law Enforcement Personnel (Hardcover)
Needed some guides for promotion preparation. This is one of several that I purchased, and I think all helped a little in different areas.
If you have a lot of time to prepare and study (and you always should be preparing for promotion in ANY job) then get as many books & guides as you can. They will help you do better now, and get recognized now. When promotion time comes - you will be ready!
