MISSION STATEMENT

The Department of Public Service motivates students to compete

academically, professionally and internally to achieve a better quality of

life through education and practical training. Undeviating community

involvement, the Department of Public Service continues to respond to and

anticipate needs in education and training, to better provide a safer,

professional and ethical atmosphere within the various Criminal Justice

vocations.

We gratefully wish to acknowledge the commitment to excellence in training by the agencies, instructors and volunteers who help make quality education possible.

Police, fire, and ambulance dispatchers, also called Public Safety Dispatchers, are usually the first people the public talks to when they call for emergency assistance. When handling a call, dispatchers carefully question the caller to determine the

type, seriousness, and location of the emergency. They then quickly decide on the kind and number of units needed, locate

the closest and most suitable ones available, sending them to the scene of the emergency. They keep in touch with the units until the emergency has been handled, in case further instructions

are needed.

So why pursue a job as an Emergency 911-Dispatcher? Well, there is job security, let’s face it people will fall down and need help, drivers will go off the road and crash, fires happen and

someone has to be there 24/7/365 to answer those calls for help. Not many businesses actually work 7 days a week and every

single day of the year, and are open 24 hours a day, but when they do, dispatchers are there.
