Program Description

(Click Here to Download 24-25 Brochure)

  • These workshops offer a specialized certification program emphasizing Wyoming DOT specifications and procedures.
  • The intentions of the workshops are a review of materials and processes to obtain certification and are not introductory training courses.
  • The first part of the certification consists of online classroom sessions covering material specific information and video demonstrations. All instruction is online through Zoom and written tests are administered through an  online test-taking platform.
  • The second part of the certification is an in-person, hands-on performance test. 
  • The successful completion will fulfill the testing technician certification requirements for Wyoming DOT QC/QA projects. WYDOT issues a certificate upon successfully passing both the online written test and the performance test. Wyoming DOT QC/QA projects require that testing technicians be certified for asphalt and concrete projects.
  • All certifications are good for 5 years.
