The Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) is pleased to announce the graduation of its 404th Basic Police Class. The Basic Police Class is 16-weeks in length and includes dozens of training areas including survival skills, firearms, emergency vehicle operations, ethics, cultural diversity, problem solving, community policing, elder abuse, drug recognition, and dozens of other subjects. Basic Police Class 404 will graduate during a private ceremony at the Oregon Public Safety Academy in Salem, Oregon on Thursday, March 4, 2021 at 1:30 p.m. Due to the COVID 19 pandemic and the need for social distancing the Department of Public Safety Standards and Training regrets that this ceremony will be closed to the public. However, we would like to publicly congratulate Basic Police #BP404 on their successful completion of basic training. Graduating members of BP 404 assigned to the Oregon Coast: Police Officer Abraham Felix, Newport Police Department; Police Officer Dayna Groder, Astoria Police Department.
