Happy New Year to all
Can anyone advise if the Test Validation Board for the Sgt Exam has convened yet? It has now been 5 months since the initial test date. With the 2017 list practically finished, and an all-time-high number of Sergeant vacancies, I imagine the department will want to get the ball rolling sooner rather than later. Any intel is greatly appreciated during this "hurry up and wait" period.

those who requested to assist will be invited after the list is established.

Oh, I thought it all needed to be done prior to the list being established

Sorry for the ignorance, but what is the Test Validation Board exactly ?

Tvb reviews all the protests and decides what will be double answer throw out or no valid reason to do anything to. They yield a lot of power

Yeah it has to be done before. It seems like they haven't even started, which means we may be waiting a lot longer for the list.

yeah, i Second this

There's no intel suggesting that they've started, and there's still make-up protests scheduled this month. I could be wrong though

Validation Board definitely has to happen before the list comes out. I haven't heard anything about it, but the only way I would know is if a friend is on it and tells me.
