Commission approves internal advertisement for police sergeant promotional exam
Summary
The commission approved an in-house advertisement and schedule for the police sergeant promotional process, including revised dates for application, testing and certification.
The Moraine Merit System Commission approved an in-house advertisement and revised schedule for the police sergeant promotional exam at its April 1 meeting.
Staff presented an internal-only promotion plan for police sergeant, noting the department had attempted the process last year with limited eligible applicants. Commissioners approved language and the revised dates for the ad and exam process. Staff confirmed the revised schedule would open applications April 7 and close April 25, with testing later in May and certification in early June; staff told the commission the written questions are drawn from a fixed 100-question bank and appear in randomized order for each applicant.
Commissioners asked about protest procedures for test questions; staff said applicants can file protests through an online form and that the department will match protested questions to the test text for review. A motion to approve the advertisement with the changed dates was moved and seconded and carried on a recorded roll call; commissioners recorded votes as yes in the transcript.
The commission approved the ad with dates and instructed staff to post the internal advertisement and handle protests through the established online process.
