Mandatory Timed Runs

A CPAT Timed Run is a practice run through of the actual CPAT course. You will be timed and proctored during your CPAT Timed Run so you can have a better understanding of things you may or may not need to work on.

Timed Runs are mandatory unless you signed a waiver at the CPAT orientation. You must attend at least 2 mandatory Timed Runs.

NOTE: Timed Run spots will be posted once they are ready for release.
