Jeff Said:

What is the pre-employment test before training starts?

We Answered:

The pre-employment test is called the AT-SAT Test. It measures your skills and abilities to LEARN how to become a controller. It does not measure your knowledge about air traffic control. Aspects of this exam include applied mathematics, word analogies, and geometric visualization.

contingency employment requires training in five different functional areas of the company?

We Answered:

I believe that in your experience with Y!A, sometimes you have an answer on the tip of your tongue but you cannot translate in term rapid, short and effective as the question requires.
Well, I am in harmony with your question, and eager to fully address the problem, but right now it's my turn to give up because it is not easy for me to translate into English the technical merits of one reasoned response.
Best wishes for a speedy help and solution of your problem.

Megan Said:

Is there an age limit on life guard training/employment and if so, am I to old?

We Answered:

The reason you see a lot of teenagers at pools is because the training is relatively cheap, but it pays pretty well, espescially for a first job. I know guards who work well into their 50's. Plus teenagers are cheaper than adults, workers don't demand a full time salary when they still live at home, at least most don't. As an adult you'll have more of a leadership role as you get more experience, but it might be kind of weird at first, because you will be bossed around by people a bit younger than you.

Jim Said:

Is it possible to get training without employment?

We Answered:

Everyone now employed was just like you... at one time, they had exactly no experience at all. Everyone starts some career or job with no experience... that's the way it is. For those who want a back door solution, the honest answer is to do two things. First, volunteer at places of interest to you. Second, do some networking where you are volunteering. Many people find jobs unadvertised this way.
