Grants for Candidate Physical Ability Test in California

The California Fire Foundation offers grants to offset the fees of the CPAT to candidates with demonstrable financial hardship.

To qualify for a grant, you must provide documentation demonstrating that you meet either one of the criteria:
1.       You or your family are receiving public assistance from the Aid to Families with Dependent Children or Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (AFDC/TANF) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), or have certification from the California Department of Veterans’ Affairs.
2.       You meet the following 2009-2010 income standards as shown on the grant application.

The grant will provide for the required pre-test program.  The pre-test program is two orientation sessions within 8 weeks of the scheduled test and two timed practice runs within 30 days of the scheduled test.  If the grantee fails the CPAT test, and has not attended all four required sessions of the pre-test program, they will not qualify for another grant.
