Real exam cost
The test fee is set by the hiring department and NTN and was not confirmed, so none is quoted
Format
Video-based computer test · four parts: Human Relations, Mechanical, Reading, Math (mental calculation, no written work) · passing standard: set by each fire department

FireTEAM is the video-based entry-level firefighter aptitude test used by many fire departments. It is administered by the National Testing Network (NTN) and was developed by Ergometrics. The test is a video-presented battery with four parts: a Human Relations test (choose the best course of action after a video scenario, then give opinions about the firefighters seen), a Mechanical test, a Reading test (choose the word that best fits the blank) and a Math test of mental calculation with no written work (National Testing Network written and video exams page). Each fire department sets its own passing standard and NTN does not publish a single pass mark. The test fee is set by the hiring department and NTN and was not confirmed, so none is quoted. The certifying body publishes no exact weights for the areas it tests, so none are shown here. Individual fire departments decide who may apply and sit the test; you apply to a department that has announced an opening and uses NTN to administer FireTEAM. The real FireTEAM is a video-based test that cannot be reproduced as text. This portal is a study aid for the knowledge and reasoning areas it covers; it does not copy the test.

Last verified: October 2026·Exam blueprint: Verified on October 6, 2026: the four-part video-presented structure comes from the National Testing Network written and video exams page (modified May 28, 2026) and two fire department candidate handouts. NTN does not publish item counts, timing or weights on those pages and no fee or passing standard was found, so none is quoted and no domain chart is shown.·Primary source: National Testing Network — candidate materials ↗
