GES 116 Exam

[DeputyDog]

Hmmm.. interesting, that the paper form is still acceptable, the question then being, how do you log/store the results.. since the field is now populated by the testing system.

Either the member can enter their own completion in "My Operations Qualifications" like any other achievement in the online SQTRs (this one would be under "General Emergency Services"), or a member with the right permissions can enter it for them in "Operations Qualifications".

Given it would be a bit odd for the member to take the GES on paper and then enter their completion themselves (if they could enter it online, then they should be able to take the test online too), but that option is there.

This is what we send our folks to in addition to a sit-down class if possible

I  have a question about the exam,
in CAP REGULATION 60-3 it states

"Successful completion of the current CAPT 116,
General Emergency Services Questionnaire,
corrected to 100 percent, qualifies the member
in the General Emergency Services Specialty Rating."

How does one correct an exam to 100 % ?
Do we keep taking the test  or what ?
Part 1 (GES) I have 100%, but I have 92% on part 2 (ICS).

That was predicated on review of a paper test. Dunno how you're supposed to do that these days.

I kind of guessed it was for back in the days of classes.

The CAP side of things I was able to find the answers
with ease, but the ICS one there were several I couldnt
find a reference to, and the end of test "areas to review"
were useless as the reference numbers they provided,
(my 2 wrong answers) do not match up to the slides or
any ICS100 class I have already.

If you take the tests in a classroom setting, via the paper method, once you make the passing score, the instructor sits down with you, goes over the questions you missed and you correct your answer sheet to 100%.  Same thing is done with the cadets and their achievement tests.
