Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) is pleased to announce that it’s leadership team will be traveling across the state visiting with constituents on our 2015 Listening Tour. As a service organization, it is essential that we have your input and feedback. It is equally important that you know what we are doing and why. We would like to invite you to attend one of the Listening Tour sessions we have scheduled. We hope your schedules will allow you to attend one of these sessions. We have scheduled two hours for each session but the sessions have traditionally taken 1.5 hours.

The goals of the Listening Tour are as follows:
1) To share information on the work of the Board, its various committees, and the agency.
2) To receive feedback from our customers on how we are doing in serving them (Quality Improvement/Quality Efficiency) (QA/QI).
3) To provide a forum through which constituents can ask questions.

Most important, during the Listening Tour we will ask three specific questions:
1) What are we doing well?
2) What can we do better?
3) What are we not doing that we should be?
