Who licenses contractors in Wyoming
These are the Wyoming classifications we build exam prep for, each licensed by its responsible board:
| Trade area | Licensing authority | Exam basis |
|---|---|---|
| Electrical | Wyoming Electrical Board | National Electrical Code (NEC) |
Always confirm the current code edition, experience requirements, fees, and passing score with the board and testing vendor before you schedule. Contractor Pathway is an independent exam-prep provider and is not affiliated with any Wyoming board or testing vendor.
How to get licensed in Wyoming
- Meet the experience requirement. Each classification requires documented on-the-job hours (and, for senior licenses, time as a licensed journeyman). A registered apprenticeship is a common path.
- Apply to the board for your trade, submit fees and proof of experience, and get approved to test.
- Pass the exam. Wyoming trade exams are typically open book against the adopted code, with a passing score commonly around 70%. Speed at finding and applying the right code section is what separates passers from re-testers.
- Hold and renew the license on its cycle, including any continuing-education and code-update hours.
Choose your Wyoming classification
Each course includes a comprehensive 5,000-plus-word study guide — worked calculations, code-section breakdowns, common exam traps, a glossary, and a 30/60/90-day study plan — plus four full-length practice exams matched to the topic weightings of the Wyoming test.
Wyoming contractor licensing — FAQ

What about plumbing and general contracting in Wyoming?
Those are handled by local jurisdictions, so requirements vary by city (for example Cheyenne, Casper, or Jackson). Master plumber exams are often delivered through ICC / Pearson VUE – confirm details with your local jurisdiction.
