Test Preparations have been holding aptitude test and interview preparation courses since 1996 and during this time have had an extremely high success rate at both the Aptitude test and Interview stages of the selection process. In fact we are one of the longest established course providers in Ireland.

We are not in the industry as long as some other course providers but since entering the Irish market have raised industry standards across the board in terms of accuracy and quality of material, level of explanation and follow up client care.
A recent survey of previous Test Preparations course participants showed a 97% success rate at Stage 1 of the selection process, many of whom were in the top one hundred places.

Not only do we cover material very similar to what appears on the actual aptitude test but we also explain it in such a way that participants can apply what they learn to any type of questions which appear on the actual test.
Over the last twenty one years we have assisted thousands of people to realise their dream of becoming Gardaí, Firefighters, Paramedics, Members of the Defence Forces, Pilots and various other careers. Many of whom are now serving at the highest levels in their respective careers.

Positive Atmosphere
At testpreparations we have always strived to ensure that we create a positive, relaxed, friendly atmosphere on our courses. Whilst a large amount of material is covered and fully explained we actively encourage clients to ask questions and seek clarification. A variety of teaching and learning styles are used to keep students stimulated. Our courses are informative, stimulating and have been described by many as fun. While we use it when necessary as a teaching aid we do not use powerpoint excessively as studies have shown and you will know the negative learning impact this can have.

Contact Time.
Testpreparations courses are normally two full days, starting at 10 AM and finishing at 6 PM.
Clients receive at least twice the contact time with tutors than those attending one day courses.
Quite simply we cover so much material and give such in-depth explanation as to how to solve problems / test questions that we need the two full days to do this properly.

Quality
Over the last twenty one years the quality of our courses not only helped our own clients to succeed but have raised industry standards across the aptitude test preparation and training industry.

Customer Care
We were the first aptitude test course provider to give our students our contact numbers on completing the course. All test preparations course participants can contact us after courses to discuss any issues which they encounter with follow up preparation after the course.

Follow Up Online Material.
On completing the course all course participants receive addittional follow up practice material free of charge. Tutors are contactable to assist with this when required.

Qualifications
All Test Preparations Instructors are qualified teachers, holding either an Honours or Masters Degree and Higher Diploma in Education. In addition to this our principal Instructor, Paul O’Reilly is qualified in test administration to British Psychometric Society Standards.
