How do the Oregon Security Guard vocabulary games work?
There are 4 games built on 20 Oregon Security Guard terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
Where do the Oregon Security Guard terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
Why is the Oregon DPSST exam considered difficult?
DPSST sets an 85% standard: a student scoring 85-99% must be remediated on every missed question, and a student scoring below 85% must fail or be reinstructed and retake the complete exam. The exam is given within the 14-hour course and covers Oregon statutes (ORS) on arrest, force and common crimes, so close study of the manual matters.
How long is the Oregon DPSST training course?
The DPSST unarmed basic course is 14 hours, and those hours include the instruction, the written exam and assessments (OAR 259-060-0120(3)(a)). It covers regulations, civil and criminal law, use of force, communication, patrol and scene management, medical and fire response, and current trends such as active threats and bomb threats.
