Austrian customers

Our police packages are also very suitable for Austrian applicants, as the differences in the selection procedure are only marginal. Furthermore, we have implemented a new update that contains even more specific content for Austrian applicants. In addition, we have adopted and adapted the changes to the entrance test for the Austrian police in our portal.

All updates are made available to all our existing customers free of charge.

Operating system

Our test platform works with all common operating systems such as Windows, Mac, and Linux, but you can also practice online for your aptitude test with our complete package on your smartphone or tablet using Android or Apple's iOS.
