019-2 Wyo. Code R. § 2-6

Current through April 27, 2019

Section 2-6 - Acceptance of Licenses from Other States

(a) Licensure through reciprocity. Educator Licenses or certificates from other states are not directly transferrable to Wyoming. To obtain a Wyoming Educator License, out-of-state applicants must demonstrate having met requirements which are substantially equivalent to Wyoming's requirements for teacher preparation and training (See Chapter 1, Section 3 ).

(b) An out-of-state Educator License is not substantially equivalent if it was issued:

• (i) through an alternative route, not issued by an accredited institution of higher education, and the applicant does not meet the experience verification requirements (see below (c));

• (ii) as a provisional, temporary, emergency, or other such License that is not recognized to be "full" licensure by the licensing state.

(c) Experience Verification. All out-of-state applicants must submit copies of valid and current Educator License(s) and verification of full time teaching experience, for at least three (3) out of the last six (6) years for each endorsement area being sought.

• (i) Teaching experience obtained through student teaching, practicum or internship will not be accepted as experience for full licensure.
