  • determining your level of physical fitness,
  • providing benchmarks to monitor your personal improvement,
  • and is an integral component of the Police Education Increment Fund.

    To achieve the maximum of two incremental points, you must pass the fitness test five years in a row. The testing must be performed over a minimum period of two consecutive years to a maximum period of five consecutive years in order for you to qualify for points.
