Welcome to the Wyoming Association of Special District’s online training program. This program is designed to help you become familiar with the laws and procedures involved in managing a special district.
There are five courses available, with each course divided into topics and sections. You’ll need to complete all the content in each course to be certified as completing the training. The training is free but requires registration for participation.

- Begin with Course #1 – Principal Acts and Purposes. There is a lesson on each special district’s principal act and purpose. You only need to complete the lesson related to your special district. For example, weed and pest district supervisors and employees DO NOT need to complete the lesson on Housing Authorities.
- Once you’ve completed the lesson related to your special district, mark Course #1 as complete. Then print your certificate of completion for your records.
- Complete the remaining Courses. Now you can complete the remaining courses, including all the lessons and topics. As you progress through the lessons and courses, be sure to click the green button at the bottom of each that says “Mark Complete.” This indicates that you’ve read and understood the information, and will mark your progress in the course.
- Once you’ve completed all the lessons and topics in each course, and completed the associated quiz with a 100 percent, you may print your certificate of completion for your records. The quiz can be taken as many times as needed until you pass with a 100 percent.
- Complete all five courses to complete the training program. Courses can be complete at your leisure and on your schedule. Links to relevant documents have been provided, such as statutes or notice examples.
- You can return to any topic at any time if you need to review the information again.
