The Challenge Exams are administered by a POST facilitator at the CWI campus. The patrol exam consists of 200 questions and must be completed in two hours or less. The detention exam consists of 100 questions and must be completed in two hours or less as well. Upon passing the exams, the student has three years to become employed by an agency. Once employed, the student must complete a probationary period with the department before a basic certificate is issued by POST. The Challenge Exams are given near the completion of the Law Enforcement program.
