INTRODUCTION
One of the primary goals of The Wyoming’ Department of Education’s (WDE) Career and Technical Education
(CTE) team is to increase the number of industry-recognized credentials and certificates (IRC) for students
enrolled in CTE courses in secondary and post-secondary schools.
Many U.S. jobs will require some form of secondary or postsecondary credentials or certifications. If current
trends continue, the nationwide supply of workers with relevant degrees and credentials in 2025 will be 23
million short of the 62 million high-quality job openings American employers must fill.
To help Wyoming’s CTE educators identify the specific credentials and certificates that employers are seeking,
the WDE has developed an initial list of Industry-recognized credentials and certifications based on extensive
analysis of Wyoming’s labor market data and on detailed feedback from employers and educators statewide.
A credential is defined as “a recognized degree, diploma, certificate or certification awarded for an occupation.”
Industry-recognized credentials have the following characteristics:
• Valued and preferred by employers
• Portable – skills learned are transferable and provide broad opportunities
• Stackable – skills sequentially built upon prior learning, complimenting each other to reflect an
accumulated set of knowledge and skills people can use to improve employability.
• Lead to higher wages, career advancement, and/or increased job security
This industry-recognized Credential List will be reviewed and updated each biennium by the WDE CTE team in
conjunction with our educators and business and industry partners.
School district administration and teachers may submit IRCs to the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE)
for consideration. Please read the entire application carefully before beginning to ensure the credential meets
all of the requirements and that the necessary data and evidence are available.
Industry-Recognized Credential and Certification Application
Interested parties are invited to continue offering comments and suggestions to continually improve the list’s
content and accuracy. Comments should be directed to the WDE CTE Team at [email protected]v.
Please note that the credentials and certifications on this list are the only IRCs that are eligible for
reimbursement by the WDE to school districts through Perkins V funding. The programs of study must be
listed on the approved Perkins V application. Please use the provided IRC invoice to receive reimbursement.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I use different IRCs in the same program of study for students?
Yes, you may choose different IRCs for each of your students in the same program of study. WDE realizes
that each of the students are unique in their needs and career aspirations. However, the IRC that is given
MUST be selected from the career cluster from the associated program of study. For example: A Hospitality
and Tourism-Restaurant Management program of study has 20 students. Fifteen (15) of the students are
interested in going into Restaurant management and are prepared to take ServSafe® Manager Food
Safety. The remainder of the class are not interested in going into management. You can give the 5 remaining
students the Guest Service Gold® Tourism Certification (AHLEI) which is a highly regarded customer service
certification.
How does WDE create the list for approved Industry-Recognized Credentials?
The WDE adopted a framework for determining industry-recognized credentials that qualify for
reimbursement from Perkins V funding. WDE reviews applications in conjunction with the biennial Perkins
grant year.
When an application is received for an IRC to be added to the approved list it is placed on the survey that
is sent to local business and industry partners through their associations, the Wyoming Business Council,
Workforce Services, and other types of partnerships. When the feedback is received from the business and
industry partners, their feedback is forwarded through a survey to the teachers in the correlated programs of
study for review and feedback.
That information from both business and industry as well as educators are compiled and analyzed along with
the JobsEQ market analysis. The resulting IRCs will be added to the list of approved credentials.
How does my district get reimbursed for IRCs that have been successfully completed in a Perkins
V-approved program of study?
Once a student has successfully completed BOTH “C” courses (verified by a student transcript) in a single
program of study, the district will assess the student with a WDE approved IRC approved for that program.
The IRCs used should be listed for that program of study on the district’s Perkins V approved application.
The district will upload a copy of the achieved IRC into the WyCTE Data Collection and complete the invoice
(a copy of which is included in this guide) and email to the WDE CTE Director for review and approval. WDE
will reimburse for only ONE successfully completed IRC, per student in a Perkins V funded program of study.
After the certificates in the WyCTE Collection are verified by WDE the invoice received from the Perkins V
funded program of study will be processed for reimbursement.
