Workshops
You’re in luck! Three workshops are happening this week, and all of them start at 17:30, and last for 2 hours - there’s your daily practice covered for those days.
Recorded webinars
You’re daily practice also counts if you watch a webinar - you’re probably ready for Pro Tips at this point in your preparation, although the Beginner's series is free..
Practice questions
Put the methodology you learned in the workshops and the webinars into practice with these CBT practice questions.
EPSO WRITTEN TEST
EPSO published the document last week, so you have already probably had at least a glance at it. (Pssst… you can find the document here).
Webinar
The EPSO Written Test Methodology Webinar not only gives great insight on how to improve your written communication skills but you’ll get practical advice on how to analyse the document, craft a solid ‘narrative' for your written response and make the best use of your time.
- You’ll also get access to additional analytical documents to give your prep work a boost.

Field-related MCQ
Our question writers put together a comprehensive list of resources used to create the questions.
Practice questions
