What is the NJ LEE? (Watch this Video)

New Jersey Civil Service LEE

The NJ Civil Service Commission (NJCSC) now gives individual departments the opportunity to request a new test cycle on an annual basis. The 2024 NJ LEE application period opened on March 1, 2024, with an application closing date of April 1, 2024. CCS Test Prep® offers a highly effective online prep program to meet everyone’s busy schedule. The CCS Test Prep® Online Learning Platform has proven to be a far more effective than in-class instruction. Students have the ability to study and practice with 24/7 access up to the day of the test with no risk of class dates having to be cancelled, etc.

During the 2024 NJ LEE cycle, candidates who register for the CCS Test Prep® program will be provided every advantage possible. The drive for exceptional performance is the focus. CCS Test Prep® utilizes the most effective training methods and timelines to give every student the optimal training experience for the greatest outcomes.

The NJCSC is expected to follow a similar timeframe as last year to facilitate the administration of the NJ LEE exam. The last testing cycle in 2023 was facilitated in July of 2023. The NJCSC gave candidates the opportunity to select from three available test dates. On Friday, May 5, 2023, the NJCSC sent applicants a link to SignUpGeniusfor candidates to select their test date, location, and time. The available test dates for 2023 were established as: Saturday, July 15, 2023 (9 am or 1 pm); Thursday evening, July 20, 2023 (6 pm); and Saturday, July 29, 2023 (9 am or 1 pm). Those candidates who properly applied for the NJ LEE and did not select a test date were assigned a test date by the NJCSC and received a card in the mail from the NJCSC with the testing information within two weeks of the exam.

The Civil Service Application Period

The New Jersey Civil Service Commission (NJCSC) opened the 2024 NJ LEE application period on March 1, 2024 with a closing date to submit the online application set as April 1, 2024. Candidates must formally apply for the 2024 NJ LEE Exam via the NJCSC online application portal. The 2024 application process requires candidates to submit separate online applications for each title and jurisdiction for which he or she wishes to be eligible. Candidates must always remember that most jurisdictions give a preference to residents. Only those departments listed on the NJCSC application portal have requested testing for 2024. If the department has requested a test this year, then prior results will no longer be valid once the 2024 results are released.  

The NJCSC utilizes a user-friendly system for the scheduling of candidates for the exam. Well after the application closing date, those who apply with the NJCSC for the actual exam will later have the opportunity to select a test date, time, and location from a list of options provided through the SignUpGenius online portal. This means that candidates will be able to choose a test date throughout the testing cycle that best matches up with their schedule. For example, the available test dates from last year (2023) were established as: Saturday, July 15, 2023 (9 am or 1 pm); Thursday evening, July 20, 2023 (6 pm); and Saturday, July 29, 2023 (9 am or 1 pm).

The NJCSC tends to use community college sites around the state for testing. The NJCSC commonly uses county college facilities in Bergen County, Passaic County, Hudson County, Essex County, Union County, Middlesex County, Ocean County, Mercer County, Camden County, and Atlantic County. Candidates had the ability to choose any of the locations and were not limited to their home county. 

When to Complete the Online Prep Course?

Every candidate is different, but history has proven that the most consistently high (99+) scores come from those who prepare diligently during the three weeks of the actual exam. Individual student’s 24/7 online access will be set for them to study at their convenience up to the student’s actual test date. The CCS Test Prep® Online Program has an established timeline of phasing in learning components during the weeks immediately leading up to the day of the student’s exam. The timeline is based on analyzing and identifying the most successful methods of training for students to achieve the highest outcomes. Students who prepare during the month (weeks and days) leading directly up to the actual exam date consistently score higher than students who attend courses too far before the exam administration. The CCS Test Prep® Online Program utilizes the ideal timelines for the greatest student success.

The NJ LEE

The NJ LEE is a very important exam, as it administered statewide and includes varied law enforcement titles: Municipal Police Officer, Campus Police Officer Recruit, County Police Officer, Park Police Officer, Police Officer Recruit Human Services, Police Officer Palisades Interstate Park, Sheriff’s Officer, State Park Police Officer, County Correctional Police Officer, State Correctional Police Officer (NJDOC), State Correctional Police Officer Juvenile Justice, Parole Officer Recruit Juvenile Justice Commission and Parole Officer Recruit. Well over 20,000 candidates commonly sit for the LEE. Candidates must achieve exceptional test scores in order to be among the top candidates eligible to be considered for openings during the life of the list(s). Proper preparation is critical when taking this very competitive exam!

The State of New Jersey chose the PSI-Talogy testing company as the vendor to write and score the NJ LEE exam. The specific exam utilized is the Law Enforcement Aptitude Battery (LEAB™). The LEAB™ is a multi-factor psychometric test that has proven to be the most comprehensive, valid, and reliable entry-level law enforcement exam available nationally. This is the exact type of exam which served as the basis of much of Chief Paprota’s doctoral research.

Preparing Candidates throughout the Country for this Specific Exam

Chief Paprota has also trained candidates all around the country for the Law Enforcement Aptitude Battery (LEAB™) utilizing the CCS Test Prep® Online Learning Platform for this specific and expanded exam. The testing jurisdictions included but were not limited to the following: New York State Police; Norfolk, Virginia; Pennsylvania State Police; Delaware State Police; Wilmington (DE) Police Department, Allentown (PA) Police Department, Oklahoma City (OK) Police Department, and the Massachusetts State Police and state-wide testing pool. In each instance, CCS Test Prep® students absolutely dominated by achieving top 1% scores with all candidates moving on to the first round of the respective hiring processes. There is no doubt that CCS Test Prep® students’ results continue to dominate in the State of New Jersey for the LEE cycle. Chief Paprota relentlessly researches entry-level law enforcement testing around the country to ensure his students have the latest and most accurate information at all times.
