Promotional Exam Coming

Special Ed emerges from his burrow and sees his shado....wait that's something else:
  • Dear Members,

    I'm pleased to announce that we will soon offer a Sergeant Promotional Exam. Planning and development for this exam has been taking place for the last several months. An official posting for this exam will be coming out in September, with a tentative exam date slated for mid-December 2019. We would like to provide our members who are interested in the rank of Sergeant ample opportunity to prepare.

    Thank you for all the hard work you do every day.

    As always, stay safe.

    Sincerely,
    Groot's Plaything
Remember, Special Ed's kid is already taking one of the spots, so you're going to have to really really study hard to even have a shot. And that's not even taking into consideration the people studying the actual test.

This also means the planned October class of sergeants is likely the last one (or second to last one ) off the list.

Again they have to give this exam, then grade it, not sure if they combine both parts into one which would be a clusterfuck of a show. Then score it and then announce the results. Might be a while, room for one more class?

Mayor Lightfoot is offering teacher 16% over 5 years and the Sgt’s Union is ready to accept 2% over 6 years to avoid arbitration. All Sgt’s better wake up and contact their union. For years union leadership has been shortchanging the membership now its going to cost every Sgt thousands of Dollars. Please contact the Sgt’s union and let them know 2% is an insult and unacceptable.

Why should they go to arbitration, they'll just get what we get during our negotiations. That way they don't spend any money on the arbitrator, we do. Me too clause.

“This also means the planned October class of sergeants is likely the last one (or second to last one ) off the list.”



If CPD conforming to CALEA standards is to be believed, the next class of sergeants will be 75 - 100 in size, followed by at least one more class of the same size in the early to late spring of 2020.

Don’t forget, the current list stays up until a new test is administered and graded... after any contested questions are reviewed and possibly tossed out.

And if history is any indicator, a mid-December test will consist of Part One of said test. Part Two won’t be administered until mid-2020, graded and rankings to follow sometime in late fall 2020. Hell, there may be three more classes off the current list.

Either way, you can have it. Chevrons ain’t all they’re cracked up to be these days unless you’re hooked up.

Look at this! Now the gun crime database is due process violation or something...

Chicago's Gun Offender Dashboard aims to keep violent criminals in jail, but raises due process concerns
https://www.theblaze.com/news/chicagos-gun-offender-dashboard-aims-to-keep-violent-criminals-in-jail-but-raises-due-process-concerns

Well, tis a pity all on duty officers in Chicago are only given a limited supply of bottled unicorn farts. That magic gas is the only substance to change human behavior and make lifelong violent criminals behave.

Knowing if or when to uncork the bottle and transform the violent fiends into peace lovers is a tough call for any on duty policeman. Even veteran officers don't know how to best solve that dilemma. To leave the cork in or waste the mystical gas on a mere strong arm robber?

Maybe higher bails would make that tough choice less of an issue since fewer violent crooks would roam free after getting popped for having a firearm unlawfully in their possession?

When I was new everyone with time on the job told me that all the exams are rigged and don’t even bother with them. I decided to study my ass off and devoted a big chunk of my life to trying to pass the sgt exam. I got a decent score, nothing great, but ended up making it by score. So it is possible. I know plenty of people re studying the actual test, plenty are going to be merit, but there’s a chance still to make it on your own. By studying hard. I know plenty of others that have made it legit too. So please don’t let people talk you out of taking the test. Don’t let them make you believe there’s no hope. There is a chance, so give it all you’ve got. Devote yourself to this one cause for the next few months. It’s something that will seriously pay off for the REST of your life. Your pay increases till you retire and your pension increases by a sizable amount too. It’s worth it. It’s possible. You can slip through the cracks. Good luck to you and hope to see many of you in stripes in the near future.

Did you guys see the story about the 2 CPD officers just fired from the police board?
It took over 9 years to fire them after allegations of child abuse with serious injury.

We have the city trying to railroad on-duty coppers trying to do their best with good under stressful circumstances and with good intentions,
yet here it’s obvious these coppers have no business on the job, but it takes damn near a decade to get it together.

I wish the public could understand how frustrating that is to the rest of us. We don’t WANT child abusers on this job! Just like that Sgt pedophile that was recently fired also. It’s simply that there are other factors at play in a lot of these cases that really disgust us.

Announcing the Big Johnson’s Merit Package Promotional Exam ByPass Dashboard.
Grootie LightLoafer survey says otherwise as well as any favorable Contract negotiations.
Maple sap brained LightLoafer must be back from The Nor’Easter Stabbin’Cabin and her advisory panel gave Jugghaid the memo to read. The Right Man for the Right Time™️ wasn’t mentioning any this weekend past Accountability Actions?

“Johnson’s son won’t have 3.5 years by the time they give the test.” @8/27/2019 12:15:00 AM

Holding up an exam is as old as the Dept, holding up actual promos due to Budget constraints are too.
What those like Jugghaid say and what those like GrootFoot do are two different diversions.
Study hard and keep your chin up, chase those Dashboard CB’s like there’s no tomorrow.
Depend on SpecialEd to deliver on time.

How many fish are taking the bait?
Giving a test doesn’t mean promoting unless there’s hiring already preplanned, of course in adherence to the 21st Century Pillar 1.
If and when that time comes for an exam, it will be postponed until all special promotional candidates have met the requirement if it isn’t changed to accommodate 21st Century Pillar 1 by Jugghead.
Remember it’s only Part 1 that needs to be attended (not necessarily pass) to get a foot in the doer.
Besides that, rumors floating that it’s in writing and part of SpecialEd’s exit package to allow for special opportunities.

Yes , hiring freeze means no more promotions from any existing list .
Ed will tweak order allowing anyone with 3+ years to take test , cannot be promoted until you have 5 years . Sounds Fair .
Now , will Lori Lightfoot, Feds require everypart of test to be graded by score , no pass fail . This is the only way to get qualified Sergeants.
Maybe 40% multiple choice , 40% short answer , 10% Oral , 10% efficiency , that would be fair .
Next reduce merit to 10% .
Good Luck to all . It’s the toughest , most demanding position on CPD.
When will a detective ,Patrol specialist,Traffic specialist and Evidence Technician test be given ? Really all the positions require knowledge of Arrests ,Criminal investigations . Give one test covering all positions . This will save money , call police officers in rank order , they can always pass on the opening and wait.
The multiple choice test should be graded the day of test , like the old detective tests , Officers know their score before leaving the building .
A list of rank order for that part could be posted within a week by an outside agency.

FOP should demand that in wake of Eddie Johnson and the boys (and gals) turning a blind eye to the recent testing scandal, the first part passing grade should be determined before the test. They should be embarrassed they have to dumb it down. All scores should be posted. And there should be merit requirements: 1. At least 15 years of service (sorry you 10 year wonders, you know damn well there are more qualified vets who are more deserving. 2. Must have an overall score in the top 50% (no more skipping 3,000 officers in line, pick up a G.O. like the rest of us) 3. You must work for your SWORN nominator (sorry Special Ed, you cant hide your picks through Robin Robinson anymore) 4. And most of all, 1 career bite at the merit apple

Throughout the years, I seen pure idiots get promoted that I know for 100 percent certain do not have clout, know anybody important to the department or even grew up in Chicago. I regret not taking the 2013 test more serious as so many clueless guys got promoted. I for one will take this test more serious and study with all I got. If I don't get it...oh well...life goes on and I will continue to live comfortably and happy and will just count away the less than 10 years I got to retirement. At least I'll know I gave it my all this time.

Seven-year-old Jacob Corona’s wish came true on Aug. 20 – he was en route to meet Mickey Mouse, according to Elmwood Park resident Dorelia Rivera, who volunteers with Make-A-Wish Foundation. Several police departments also provided the youngster with an escort to the airport.
“I’ve been a wish granter for 15 years,” Rivera said. “When we met Jacob, he was certain he wanted to take a trip and meet Mickey Mouse. That was his wish.”
Corona, of Schiller Park, was diagnosed with childhood leukemia in January 2018.

“The community has rallied around Jacob,” Rivera said. “As wish granters, we try to make each wish really special, and a lot of factors go into that.”

On Aug. 20, Rivera said the day began at Gambino’s Fresh Markets in Schiller Park. Police from various nearby towns formed a motorcade with their squad cars and escorted Jacob and his mother, who were riding in one of the police cars, to the airport for their flight to Disney World.

I agree. It's total bullshit. I was fortunate to make it in the last class off the 1993 Sgt test & there was no merit. If there was, I probably wouldn't have made it. I completely disagree with merit but because it's here is & ALWAYS will be, I think those promoted meritoriously should all be saved for the last class. Again, I don't like merit but if its gonna be here, why should they get higher seniority which could equate to a better furlough, getting VRI & possibly a bid to a district ahead of those who passed the test legitimately?

When I was new everyone with time on the job told me that all the exams are rigged and don’t even bother with them. I decided to study my ass off and devoted a big chunk of my life to trying to pass the sgt exam. I got a decent score, nothing great, but ended up making it by score. So it is possible. I know plenty of people re studying the actual test, plenty are going to be merit, but there’s a chance still to make it on your own. By studying hard. I know plenty of others that have made it legit too. So please don’t let people talk you out of taking the test. Don’t let them make you believe there’s no hope. There is a chance, so give it all you’ve got. Devote yourself to this one cause for the next few months. It’s something that will seriously pay off for the REST of your life. Your pay increases till you retire and your pension increases by a sizable amount too. It’s worth it. It’s possible. You can slip through the cracks. Good luck to you and hope to see many of you in stripes in the near future.

This exam might actually be in the form of recent detective exam where both portions were given out on same day and it’s going to be a lot of multiple choice/ sort order questions to avoid problems with grading.

No. The Groot most likely paved the way for him before the freeze was ordered. And even if she did not pave the way, she can make an exception in "her" policy and hire him whenever she pleases.

Every part of test should be based on score
No pass / fail
let cpd promote the most qualified
it hasn't happened since 1993 for Sergeants and 1995 for Lieutenants
look at the unqualified / incompetent supervisors out there
most could not complete an arrest report , inventory
sergeants in 6 afraid to sign case reports ,approve an arrest report , write an IBond
how many hiding inside , sgt logs falsified , never see a sarge rolling on calls
logging us from PDT or cell phone

There lies the problem, most of the merit from the last sgt promotions are from 6.

Grade multiple choice while Officers are taking Part 2 of exam . Seal , part 2 , hand carried by an outside agency to an Independent agency to grade Part two . Officers will have score from multiple choice before they leave building .
Make it 60% multiplayer choice , 40% short answer. No Oral interviews, no efficiency counted . If an Officer has a disciplinary, medical abuse history deduct points from their test score .

Don’t worry. The consent decree has that covered. Their recommendation were to have more lieutenants promoted to see that the sgts are doing their jobs. What else can be said

Everyone should be required to pass part one with a 70 is and above. Qq That would eliminate the highly incompetent ones. If You candidates can’t pass a multiple choice test with a 70; they shouldn’t be eligible to go on to part two. The qclouted slid by with a 60 on part on the last time. The bosses curbed the passing score at the last minute to get them in.

Part one and two should not be taken on the same day. However, part one should be graded the same day before leaving the test. Candidates should know their score before leaving the test. This would alleviate people from studying for part 2 without knowing if they’ve passed part 1.
