Intake Exam Registration
If you meet the requirements, and have not written a Delta Police intake exam in the past six months, register for the next intake exam. Due to the volume of applications received, only applicants being actively considered will be contacted with an email invite to our next Recruit Intake exam. Invitations to write are typically emailed two weeks prior to the date of the exam. If you have not received an invitation to the Intake exam within 6 months, we have more competitive applicants in our pool at this time. The DPD usually runs seven exams per year in the following months:
February, April, June, August, September (Reserve Constables), October and December

The ETHOS exam has a three-hour time limit, and most applicants use the allotted time to complete the exam. A score of 60% (60/100) is required to pass, but we would typically like to see a much higher score than 60%. Applicants who fail to pass the ETHOS exam must wait 6 months and then re-register for a second opportunity to write the exam. Each request will be considered on an individual basis. The modules assess the following four areas:
-
-
- Memory and observation skills (20 marks)
- Reading, Comprehension and Critical Thinking Skills (25 marks)
- Summarizing skills (10 marks)
- Writing and editing skills (45 marks)
