About Our Online Store

Our online store sells civil service test preparation booklets and workshops.

Our civil service test preparation booklets are designed to help test-takers practice for New York State, county, city, and school district examinations with sample questions similar to those one might see on actual tests for New York State or local government jobs. Our booklets provide sample questions and detailed answers, and many booklets also have diagnostic sections or lesson bullet points to help guide your study and improve your scores.

Our 6-hour hands-on members-only civil service test prep workshops typically take place on Saturdays or on two consecutive weekday evenings. They are designed to help test-takers in preparing for state, county, city, and school district civil service examinations in New York.
