The Manchester Township Police Department in Ocean County (NJ) is conducting a formal application process for entry-level police hiring through 10 p.m. on Wednesday, July 7, 2021. The process begins with a PT Assessment scheduled for Saturday, July 10, 2021, then a written examination on Wednesday, July 14, 2021, for the top 100 candidates after the PT assessment. The department requires that candidates download an application from their website at: Manchester Twp PD Recruitment (Click Here). Applications must be completed (typed not handwritten) and turned in by 10 p.m. on Wednesday, July 7, 2021, at police headquarters along with a resume, injury waiver (do not sign until in the presence of police personnel), copy of photo identification, and a $75 money order or cash.
The written exam is being administered only four days after the PT assessment. Only candidates who are confident in their physical ability should register for exam prep.
CCS Test Prep® offers the best and most focused program for the exam. Chief David A. Paprota, Ed.D. (Ret.) works with candidates via the CCS Test Prep® Online Learning Platform which has proven to be a much more effective method of training than simple in-class lecture. The prep program begins no sooner than 15 days prior to the actual written exam and remains accessible 24/7 up to the time of the actual exam. For those who are unsure whether or not they can achieve the satisfactory points on the physical to advance to the written test, I ask that you not register for the prep course.
The CCS Test Prep® Program is a very focused training course. 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 officials in Manchester Township Police Department have contracted with the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police (NJSACOP) for the administration of the exam. The exam is actually produced and scored by a private vendor (I/O Solution – IOS). The exam has proven to be a very challenging law enforcement entry-level examination. It is known that 50% of candidates who actually sit for the exam “fail” to receive an acceptable score to remain in the process. Of those who are fortunate enough to pass, the vast majority achieve very low scores that just make the cut line.

Dr. David A. Paprota, Ed.D.
Founder of Critical Concepts & Strategies (CCS Test Prep®)
As the premier entry-level law enforcement exam preparation company, Critical Concepts & Strategies (CCS Test Prep®) was founded by Dr. David A. Paprota to provide entry-level law enforcement candidates with the most effective exam preparation training possible. Dr. Paprota served as a chief of police with over 27 years of law enforcement experience and formally retired from law enforcement in August of 2016. Dr. Paprota has over 25 years of formal experience training candidates for the sophisticated, multi-factor psychometric examinations used for entry-level law enforcement. His formal research and education at Seton Hall University specifically focused on multi-factor psychometric testing which is the form of testing utilized in entry-level law enforcement. Dr. Paprota’s formal educational credentials, experience in exam preparation, and success in training law enforcement candidates are unmatched in the exam preparation industry.
As the Executive Director of CCS Test Prep®, Dr. Paprota ensures that only the most effective educational techniques and materials are utilized in the entry-level law enforcement exam preparation program. Only the most respected and credentialed instructors are permitted to teach a CCS Test Prep® course along side Dr. Paprota. Dr. Paprota has personally trained over 17,000 law enforcement candidates and incumbents in over the past 25 years.
CCS Test Prep® utilizes the most contemporary and sophisticated technology to enhance the learning experience of each student. Exams are formally scored utilizing sophisticated Scantron™ scoring equipment and a proprietary software-based scoring system developed by Dr. Paprota. This allows for the production of an individualized scoring report for each student. CCS Test Prep® students receive an individualized scoring report for both a Preliminary Diagnostic Examination administered at the beginning of the program as well as for the formal, Final Examination administered at the conclusion of the program. As a result, each student is keenly aware of his or her strengths and weaknesses to better guide the student’s studies as he or she prepares for the actual examination. This important aspect of the course further enhances the learning experience provided through the well-developed instruction, visual presentations, very focused course materials, and practice examinations.
