What is required of cadets to successfully pass written tests?

To successfully pass written tests, cadets must achieve a minimum passing score as determined by P.O.S.T. (the Peace Officer Standards and Training). This requirement emphasizes the importance of meeting a specific, standardized benchmark that reflects fundamental knowledge and competencies expected within the training. The focus is on demonstrating a level of understanding and retention of the material covered in the curriculum.

While attendance, completion of practice tests, and participation in study groups can certainly contribute to a cadet's ability to perform well and prepare appropriately, the definitive metric for success on written exams is the achievement of the score set by P.O.S.T. This standardization ensures that all cadets are evaluated objectively and fairly based on their grasp of the requisite material.
