- The single change that would help most

About
Built by someone who knows the job
I’m Dan. I spent seven years working at the Police Federation, much of it working closely with the Independent Office for Police Conduct. It gave me a close view of the standards officers are held to, and why the values in the framework matter once you’re in the job.
Today I teach uniformed public services in further education. Attested is the practice tool I’d want any applicant to have: realistic, honest about what assessors look for, and affordable.
Attested is independent. It isn’t connected to the College of Policing, the Police Federation or any police force.

Questions
Before you start
Is this the official College of Policing test?
No. Attested is an independent practice tool. Every scenario and exercise is our own, and fictional, but it follows the published format, timings and framework of the real assessments.
Is it up to date?
It’s built on the four-stage process that every force in England and Wales has had to use since March 2026, and on the 2024 competency and values framework that replaced the 2016 version. We check the College’s guidance for changes every week.
Do I need an account?
No. Your progress is saved on your device. If you buy full access, keep your order ID. You can use it to unlock another device.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It’s built for phones first. Use “Add to Home Screen” in your browser and it opens like an app.
How does the feedback work?
When you finish an answer, it’s sent to an AI assessor that marks it against the relevant competencies and values and explains what to improve. It’s practice guidance, not an official mark.
I’m applying in Scotland or Northern Ireland. Will it help?
Attested is built for forces in England and Wales. Police Scotland and the PSNI run their own processes, though the interview practice is still useful.
What if it isn’t for me?
Ask for a refund within 14 days of paying and you’ll get your money back.
