Board On Public Safety Standards And Training Meeting Recap - 10/25/18

The Board on Public Safety Standards and Training held its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting this morning, Thursday, October 25, 2018, in the Boardroom of the Oregon Public Safety Academy in Salem.

To increase the public's trust, the Oregon legislature has mandated the Board on Public Safety Standards and Training establish minimum standards that are required to be met and maintained by Oregon's providers of public safety, including police officers, corrections officers, parole and probation officers, telecommunicators (9-1-1), emergency medical dispatchers, public safety instructors, and OLCC regulatory specialists. The Department of Public Safety Standards and Training is responsible for certifying public safety professionals who meet all of the Board-established intellectual, physical and moral fitness standards and for denying, suspending or revoking the certification of those who do not meet or fall below these standards.

The Board welcomed its newest member, Thomas Thomas, a representative of the private security industry, to his first meeting.  The Board also thanked outgoing members Jeff Herring of the City of Tigard Police Department and Casey Duncan of the City of Salem for their years of dedicated service.
