Pre-Assessment Guides
Review the current OFAI pre-assessment guides for each testing stage so you know what to bring, how to prepare, and what to expect before arrival.
These guides are a required part of candidate preparation and should be reviewed before every booked assessment.
The OFAI pre-assessment guides explain what to bring, how each assessment day is structured, and what candidates can do to prepare effectively. Review the guide that matches your booked assessment stage before attending FESTI.
