Assessment Exercises
Now that you have seen an introduction to the kind of writing skills needed at the Academy, we would like you to do some assessment exercises that will give us an idea of how well developed your basic writing skills are.
Instructions: There are six exercises. Clicking on the link below will open the exercise. You should fill out the form with the answers and press the Submit Exercise button at the bottom to send it to the CMPA Learning Skills Instructors for evaluation.
Please note: with Web-based forms you must complete the exercise in one session. If you close the form, all of your work up to that point will be lost.
When you submit the exercise, you will be taken to a message verifying that the exercise was sent. There will be buttons at the bottom of the page that will bring you back to this page or on to the next exercise.
Please be sure that you provide your name and email address each time. There will be fields to enter this information at the top of the exercise. After the submission of each of your exercises, you will receive feedback by email.
Only submissions by St. Louis County and Municipal Police Academy Recruits will actually be read by the Learning Skills Instructors. We will contact recruits if there are concerns about the submissions.
