NTN Tests - Law Enforcement Law Enforcement Testing System (FrontLine National) Total Test Time: Approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes Human Relations Test The Human Relations Test focuses on using good judgment in enforcement, public relations, and teamwork. It was specifically designed for entry-level law enforcement. Candidates watch a video segment and then choose the best course of action in a multiple-choice format. This test is presented on video and the items play without stopping. Candidates have 10 seconds to answer each question. Law enforcement experience is not needed to answer these questions. This test is not intended in any way to be a test of knowledge of policy or technical aspects of the job. Any information that may be needed to answer a question is provided in the test. Candidates should base answers only on information given in the test and common sense. Report Writing Test The Report Writing Test is given in two parts. The first part involves writing a report and the second part is a multiple-choice test. For the first part, candidates will be shown a brief scenario on video and will be asked to write a factual report describing the scenario. Candidates will watch the scenario twice with time between viewings to take notes. Prior to viewing the test scenario, a sample situation will be shown and an example report will show candidates what is considered a good response. Candidates will be able to take notes and can use these notes to write the report. After watching the test scenario twice, candidates have 10 minutes for writing. For the second part, candidates will use the report they wrote during the first part of the Report Writing Test to answer multiple-choice questions. Multiple-Choice Reading Test The multiple-choice reading test is designed specifically for law enforcement officers, a job requiring ongoing study of difficult and technical materials. This test is based on actual job materials. Candidates will be required to choose a word that best fits in the blank.
