Wyoming works for tomorrow.
HB 109 modifies Wyoming's Tomorrow Scholarship program to prioritize students in workforce-focused education. It adds a third preference for students enrolled in credential programs approved under the Wyoming Works program (which connects training to local job needs) and a fourth preference for teacher preparation students. The bill also changes how the scholarship fund's value is calculated, using longer historical averages starting in 2027, and transfers $75 million to the scholarship fund while directing $20 million to workforce programs. This directly affects students pursuing vocational credentials, teaching degrees, or other in-demand fields through Wyoming community colleges.
