WYOMING STUDENTS CAN EARN A CAREER READINESS CERTIFICATE. IDAHO STUDENTS CANNOT.
THE DIFFERENCE
One thing Wyoming does differently:
All students can earn a Career Readiness Certificate which shows that they possess the fundamental skills required to achieve success in the workplace and become valuable employees. Earning this certificate also helps a student qualify for post-high school scholarships. Idaho does not have a statewide, career-readiness certification for all students.*
Without this opportunity, Idaho kids are at a disadvantage.
All Wyoming students can earn a career readiness certificate.
All Idaho students cannot.*
