PRLog - June 30, 2015 - MILWAUKEE -- National Testing Network (NTN), the leader in outsourced testing for public safety departments announces a new testing location in Wisconsin, in partnership with the Milwaukee Area Technical College, located at 700 West State Street, Milwaukee, WI 53233.
This new location will offer entry-level testing for firefighter, law enforcement, corrections officer and emergency communications officer applicants applying for city, county and state public safety agencies.
By expanding testing in Wisconsin, NTN is providing employment testing services that are more convenient for Midwest job seekers, allowing local public safety departments an opportunity to greatly reduce their applicant screening costs.
NTN offers public safety departments an easy way to enhance their application process through a centralized testing model that offers rapid applicant score reports, making applicant’s test scores readily available to employers who are looking to hire new employees. This allows NTN to provide its clients with the most current applicant information, and the necessary test score data so that public service departments can quickly make good hiring decisions.
NTN is enabling candidates across the nation to have access to multiple times and dates to take their entry-level placement exams for public safety job openings. By breaking down the testing barriers, and giving candidates an opportunity to take their employment test at a convenient time for them, and in a central location, NTN is making the employment testing process candidate-centric.
The continuous testing model provided by National Testing Network is becoming a key tool for departments looking to increase diversity and quality in their workforce,” said National Testing Network President, Carl Swander, Ph.D. “NTN has already witnessed positive outcomes in 23 other states, where we’ve implemented our candidate-focused testing model. We are excited to have the opportunity to provide this service in the Milwuakee area. Departments and candidates are significantly reducing their costs associated with the selection process by using NTN, and they’re reporting higher levels of satisfaction after switching to NTN’s continuous testing model.”
