Online Courses
Our Online Courses provide test-takers the opportunity to practice for New York State, county, city, and school district civil service examinations with sample questions similar to those one might see on actual tests for New York State or local government jobs. These interactive online courses allow test-takers access to training 24 hours a day from any computer.
Workshops
Sign up for one of the popular CSEA test preparation workshops, and let an instructor guide you to success on your next Civil Service examination. The WORK Institute conducts live, six-hour test preparation workshops in general topic areas or exam specific topic areas for large State and Local Government exams. Local Presidents may request a workshop in their local if they have space available to hold the workshop and a minimum of 15 interested members.
