Reciprocity

Wyoming participates in state-to-state reciprocity; however, reciprocity implies an “equal exchange.” Therefore, the requirements an applicant met to obtain his or her out-of-state teaching license must be equivalent to Wyoming requirements.

Wyoming generally recognizes all out-of-state teaching licenses IF the standards the applicant met in his or her state are equivalent to Wyoming licensing standards. Equivalent standards include:

• Completion of a regionally or nationally accredited teacher education program
• Supervised student teaching
  Passing the required test(s) for the state in which you hold a teaching license
• Added endorsements are recognized in the same manner as described above

For complete details on reciprocity please review the NASDTEC Interstate Agreement on Reciprocity.
