Exam-integrity policy

The bright line

We teach skills and publicly documented formats. We do not reproduce, solicit, buy, infer, or reconstruct live protected examination items. When there is any doubt about a submission, it is quarantined and reviewed before any use.

Why we hold this line

Aptitude batteries used by apprenticeship programs and utilities are secure instruments. Circulating their contents damages their validity for everyone, exposes the person who shared them, and can disqualify candidates. A preparation product built on leaked items is also worthless the moment the items rotate.

The durable thing to teach is the underlying skill: the algebra, the functions, the reading comprehension, the mechanical reasoning, and the discipline of working accurately against a clock. That is what we build.

What this means in practice

• Every practice item we publish is original, written against a competency and skill map, and reviewed. Each carries an attestation that it is original, skill-aligned, reviewed, and free of protected source material.
• Diagnostics and simulators mirror only publicly documented structure — section types, approximate counts, and timing — where that structure is published and verified. They never claim to duplicate an exam.
• Candidate reports describe process: what the stages were, how long things took, what themes came up. They are paraphrased, never verbatim recall of test items.

What happens to a submission that crosses the line

1. A warning appears before every report and content upload, stating plainly what must not be submitted.
2. Submissions containing answer-key language, screenshots, copied documents, or long verbatim question sets are quarantined automatically.
3. Quarantined material is restricted to trained moderators and excluded from search indexes, analytics payloads, AI prompts, and ordinary administrative lists.
4. No contribution credit is issued, and repeat submission ends the account.
5. Every decision is logged with the moderator, the reason, and the time.

If you believe we have published something we should not

Write to support@wiretohired.com with the page and what you believe is protected. We will restrict the content while we review it rather than after. We maintain a documented takedown route, a decision log, and a legal escalation contact.

More on how content is sourced and reviewed is in our methodology.
