59 | Assessment for Business Mechanic Evaluation (C, B or A) The C, B, and A Mechanic Evaluation tests are for use in selecting manufacturing or processing maintenance candidates who have knowledge in mechanical and electrical maintenance. NOTE: Each level progresses in difficulty, with A Mechanic Evaluation being the most advanced. Categories tested include: Print Reading • Mechanical • Electrical • Plumbing • Lubrication • Pneumatics • Rigging • Welding • Machine Shop • Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning Mechanical Maintenance Trainee This test is for use in selecting mechanical maintenance trainees with one year of training or experience in 12 content areas. Categories tested include: Hydraulics • Pneumatics • Print Reading • Welding • Power Transmission • Lubrication • Pumps • Piping • Rigging • Maintenance • Shop Machines • Tools, Material & Equipment

Mechanical Repair Apprentice Battery This is a basic skills test battery measuring 5 different areas: Reading: Measures a mechanical apprentice's ability to read a passage and answer questions about the passage. The passages in this test are related to basic mechanical concepts and concepts that a mechanical apprentice may be required to learn while on the job. Arithmetic: Can be used to determine arithmetic skills that would be required of a mechanical apprentice including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers and decimals, and addition and subtraction of fractions and simple formulas. Measurement: Assesses the ability to measure objects. Reading Prints & Drawings: Measures a mechanical apprentice's ability to read mechanical prints and drawings. Basic Mechanical Knowledge: Measures knowledge of basic mechanical concepts, such as tools and tool use that could be expected of a mechanical apprentice. The 5 tests in this battery are more demanding of job knowledge than a basic skills battery, but less demanding than our Electrical Maintenance Trainee Test. Each test sold separately. Mechanical Technician (C, B, or A) These tests are for use in selecting metals or manufacturing candidates who have knowledge or experience in the following areas: Hydraulics & Pneumatics • Print Reading • Welding & Rigging • Power Transmission & Lubrication • Mechanical Maintenance Principles • Pumps & Piping. Each level progresses in complexity, with Mechanical Technician A being the most advanced. MecTest This test designed for use with applicants and incumbents to measure journey-level mechanical knowledge and skills required for maintenance jobs. It is most often used for repair or maintenance mechanics where mechanical knowledge and skills are a necessary part of job activities. Categories tested include: Hydraulics & Pneumatics • Print Reading • Welding & Rigging • Power Transmission • Lubrication • Pumps & Piping • Mechanical Maintenance • Machines, Tools, & Equipment MIG Welding MIG Welding measures a candidate's knowledge of general welding information such as welding techniques and joint types, as well as, MIG welding variables, transfer mechanisms, and troubleshooting. It also tests a candidate's ability to interpret welding symbols.
