When will my Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) window start if I have been posted to a new unit?
Your Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) window begins on your next birthday, but you can start taking your IPPT from the effective date of posting to the new unit. Provisions to allow the early opening of your IPPT window ahead of your next birthday have been implemented. Any IPPT attempts or incentive awards achieved during this early window are considered as within the same IPPT window.
Example: Your date of posting is on 4 March 2021, and your IPPT window opens on 6 May 2021. You took and passed your IPPT on 7 April 2021.You have fulfilled your IPPT requirements for your upcoming IPPT Window (6 May 2021 to 5 May 2022). You do not have to take IPPT until your following IPPT Window that will open on 6 May 2022.
