GENERAL INFORMATION

DPSST is currently recruiting for one permanent full time vacancy within the Fire Training Program.
Retirees encouraged to apply!!
The limitations on employment imposed by ORS 238.082 does not apply to a retired member who is employed by the Department of Public Safety Standards and Training for the purpose of providing training under ORS 181.610 to 181.712
The purpose of the DPSST Fire Training and Certification Program is to implement standards for the training and certification of Oregon’s 11,000 Fire Service Professionals. For over 30 years Oregon’s fire programs have assisted in preparing career and volunteer fire fighters who serve and protect Oregonians every day. In 1972 the Oregon Legislature established the Fire Training and Certification Program as the Fire Standards and Accreditation Board (FSAB). In 1993, legislation abolished the FSAB and transferred those duties to the Board on Public Safety Standards and Training (BPSST). In addition, the Fire Training Unit of the Office of State Fire Marshal was transferred to DPSST to consolidate public safety training under one agency.
All employees have a significant impact on the success of the agency mission, vision and values by exemplifying and displaying an attitude, appearance, presence, and demeanor that demonstrates a high standard of agency professionalism.
Applicants will be subject to a Computerized Criminal History and Driver and Motor Vehicle Services check as well as a thorough background investigation. Adverse background data may be grounds for immediate disqualification.
Employees of the Department are required to meet the highest standards of professional conduct and ethics while on the job, and also to maintain those same high standards when taking actions in their personal lives that could reflect on the Department.
All department employees are responsible for upholding the mission of DPSST by promoting excellence in public safety through the development of professional standards and the delivery of quality training. DPSST is the state training academy for law enforcement officers, corrections officers, parole and probation officers, firefighters, telecommunicators, and emergency medical dispatchers. It is also the regulatory agency that enforces employment and training standards for the above listed public safety disciplines and licenses proprietary security managers, security contractors and officers, polygraph examiners, and private investigators. DPSST's constituency includes more than 35,000 public safety providers.
