At Wyoming TWD, we believe learning goes beyond the classroom. That’s why we offer hands-on, real-world experiences for youth aged 10-21, from career exploration to paid job opportunities. Our program encourages students to discover careers that excite them through business visits, professional mentoring, and online resources. With our Work-Based Learning Experiences (WBLE), participants get to try out different jobs and gain valuable skills for the future. From fun activities for younger students to internships and apprenticeships for older youth, our customized programs are designed to help every child build confidence, learn life skills, and find a path to success.

University of Wyoming’s Innovation Wyrkshop
Wyoming Vocational Rehabilitation has teamed up with Makerspace programs across the state to offer an exciting and hands-on pre-apprenticeship program for students with disabilities. This program gives students the chance to build valuable job skills using the University of Wyoming’s MAP program and Makerspace’s cutting-edge tools. After gaining practical knowledge, students can apply their skills in a paid work experience. They’ll leave the program ready to jump into apprenticeships in fields like construction or healthcare.  Find out what YOU can do at Makerspace!
