In order to qualify for professional licensure you must first have completed your Geologist-in-Training certification from any state with ASBOG certification. However, you may apply for both exams simultaneously if all requirements are met. The application fee for both exams is $180.00. Following requirements approval of your Wyoming application, you will receive contact from the board office notifying you that you've met all requirements to sit for the exam(s). You will also receive further steps to register, schedule and submit payment for your computer-based testing.
When applying to practice in Wyoming through reciprocity:
If you are seeking professional Wyoming licensure while you hold an active license in another state, you may apply through reciprocity (comity). The application fee for this procedure is $125.00. All of our requirements remain the same with the addition of a license verification directly from your respective board.
Professional Licensure Reciprocity Agreement
Professional Licensure Reciprocity Agreement
The Wyoming Board of Geologists' Practice Act authorizes the WBPG to issue a Wyoming PG license by comity to an individual who holds a PG license and is in good standing under the laws of another licensing state or foreign country. Applicants for the Wyoming license must provide their proof of licensure or registration and must meet all Wyoming licensure requirements.
To encourage licensure by reciprocity, WBPG has been working with other states to facilitate agreements that promote cooperative licensure.
