Writing Assignments

Writing Assignments:

These are a common component of a promotional exam, but most firefighters struggle with this section.

Learn to produce documents that are professional, concise, organized, and grammatically correct using an established system. AFO members can use our templates to practice with 25 fire officer or BC writing assignments covering a wide variety of topics and format types. By timing your practice assignments, then comparing your work with AFO’s finished documents, you can effectively prepare for the writing portion of your exam.
