The officials at the Cape May County Police Academy held an application period for this testing cycle for the Alternate Route Program competitive process through Wednesday, April 15, 2026. For those who applied via PoliceApp.com by the application deadline, the selection process begins with a pass/fail physical assessment administered within weeks after the close of applications. Those candidates who successfully pass the physical assessment will be invited to sit for the written exam.
Serious candidates also register for the CCS Test Prep® Online Exam Preparation Program. Those who register for prep begin their 24/7 access to the CCS Test Prep® Online Learning Platform two weeks prior to the administration of the actual exam and have ability to study at their convenience up to the time of the actual exam.
The Cape May County Police Academy is a residential academy which makes it ideal for candidates throughout the state. For that reason, it is very competitive and Alternate Route Program slots are limited.
The CCS Test Prep® program is designed to assist serious candidates in scoring high on the written exam. Students who register for the CCS Test Prep® program learn via the CCS Test Prep® Online Learning Platform with 24/7 access within the two weeks leading up to the actual test date.

Why the Alternate Route Program?
The CCS Test Prep® Program is a very focused training course during which Chief David A. Paprota, Ed.D. (Ret.) works with students using an online platform for the two weeks leading up to the actual exam. Along with videos and instructional lessons, students have the ability to complete online practice quizzes which are instantly scored and include answer guides to ensure maximum retention and understanding. This focused approach has proven to be far superior to in-class lectures and has produced exceptional results.
The Cape May County Police Academy utilizes the New Jersey Association of Chiefs of Police (NJSACOP) exam services unit to administer the Alternate Route Program exam. The exam series administered by the NJSACOP is a very critically scored entry-level exam that has been proven to be very challenging as a competitive instrument. Most candidates take the exam over and over without ever achieving a sufficiently adequate score to be considered in any of the selection processes for which the exam series is utilized.
