About the program-
These workshops provide specialized certification training based on Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) specifications and procedures. They are designed as a review and certification program, not as introductory courses.
The certification process has two parts:
-
Online Learning – Participants attend live Zoom sessions that include course-specific instruction, demonstrations, and preparation for the exam. Written tests are taken through an online testing platform.
-
Hands-On Performance Exam – After the online portion, participants complete an in-person exam to demonstrate practical skills.
Successful completion of both parts meets WYDOT’s certification requirements for technicians working on Quality Control/Quality Assurance (QC/QA) projects. WYDOT will issue a certificate upon passing the written and performance exams.
Technicians must hold certification in order to work on WYDOT asphalt and concrete projects.
All certifications are valid for five years.
