Good day folks! Super excited for tonight's Online Information Session! 🎉 For those that think they can hit level 7 in the Shuttle run, we are running a shuttle run this Saturday! Please let me know by completing this survey below. Timings will be provided for the shuttle run in a separate individual email. Please complete survey below and send me a personal DM @Sgt. Jennifer Richardson Recruiting- Ottawa Police Service with your email address. 👉 You do not need your PREP certificate to apply! You need level 7 of the shuttle run, so pass this Saturday and you can apply on the spot! (We are currently accepting the shuttle run with successful completion of level 7 as the current fitness requirement in our application process, that said, you will still need to pass the full PREP test at the Ontario Police College to graduate from the College.This current fitness requirement is a pilot, studies have shown that if you are able to pass level 7 in the shuttle run, you should be physically able to pass the circuit portion of the PREP Test. So the short answer is get your level 7 shuttle run completed by a properly trained facilitator, you can apply to OPS but with the mindset that you should be training to be successful in the PREP Test.)
