Candidate Physical Agility Test (CPAT)

The Green Bay Fire Department requires the CPAT test as the physical agility portion of the recruitment process. CPAT certification must be obtained from the Green Bay Fire Department during the calendar year of the recruitment.

The Candidate Physical Ability Test is a practical exam used to test a candidate's physical ability to perform a job task related to firefighting. CPAT is a physically demanding test that requires a candidate to use his or her physical, mental abilities and , in some cases, balance. The CPAT involves eight events that must be completed in 10 minutes 20 seconds. The CPAT process is used in the selection of firefighters in participating fire agencies throughout the State of Wisconsin.
