Performance on the PPRT is strongly linked to the officer's physical job readiness level and his or her ability to do job-related physical tasks. The PPRT is a validated physical readiness test and measures the underlying and predictive physical fitness factors necessary to perform the essential and critical physical job tasks of Nevada peace officers.
