REVIEW COPIES
All tests are available for review upon completion of a Test Security Agreement. To ensure
that each test accurately covers the requirements of the job in each agency, clients are
strongly encouraged to review all tests prior to ordering.
TEST SCORING
We provide scoring and a detailed score report at no additional charge. While you are free
to do your own scoring, CPS scoring allows for the pooling of test results of cumulative item
analyses and norms. We guarantee prompt scoring of your test materials.
TEST SECURITY
CPS sets the highest security standards in order to protect the interests of clients and job
applicants. As a test user, you must keep test materials secure at all times. To safeguard the
integrity of our tests, you may not allow candidates to inspect any standardized test materials.
Duplication of testing materials is strictly prohibited. In order to review or
order test material, every client must have a current, signed Test Security
Agreement on file. To receive a Test Security Agreement, please call us
at 916.263.1800 or toll free at 866.867.5272.
CANCELLATION
If you wish to cancel an existing order, you must do so within two weeks prior to your
original test date. Failure to do so will result in a cancellation fee for stock exams. For exams
other than stock exams, you shall be billed for work already completed.
TEST ORDERING POLICY
Orders must be placed at least two weeks prior to the test date to avoid additional expedited
shipping charges. For orders needing delivery in less than two weeks, please refer to the
rate chart for additional costs.

Tests are classified based on the amount of customization involved. Our Test Development team
works with you to help create tests that measure the potential success of your candidates. When
ordering tests, job analysis data should help you select the appropriate test for the job. For
some tests, you may be asked to complete a job analysis workbook to help define the
essential tasks, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the position.
STOCK TEST/SUPPLEMENT
A standardized test or supplement for a specific job classification
common to many public agencies. Each stock test has been validated through a content-oriented
procedure. Prior to use by an agency, a stock test undergoes agency review to ensure its
job-relatedness.
SEMI-STOCK TEST / SPECIALIZED ITEM SET
A test developed from items selected by the agency from two or more stock tests or specialized item sets. Content
validity is established through the agency's completion of a job analysis booklet and the
selection of items that match the agency's job requirements.
SEMI-CUSTOM TEST/SUPPLEMENT
A test developed from
items developed by CPS specifically for the client agency. Content validity
is established through the agency's completion of a job analysis workbook
and the selection of items that match the agency's job requirements.
