Why take this course
Wyoming Doesn't Require It. Employers Still Want It.
Wyoming doesn't license security guards at the state level. Companies hiring for the post still look for training first.
Be the applicant who's already ready
Wyoming doesn't license security guards, so hiring managers can't lean on a state credential to screen candidates. A finished training course does that job for them.
Wyoming pays above the national median
The median security guard wage in Wyoming is $39,200 a year - $43,370 in Cheyenne and $43,250 in Casper. Trained guards are who employers pay more for.
A job that's always hiring
Guard turnover drives roughly 157,200 annual job openings nationwide, even with modest 1% overall growth. There's steady room to move from a first post into something better.
Ready for the post, license or not
Wyoming allows permitless carry for adults 21 and up, but that's not training. Employers still want guards who know how to work a post safely and professionally.
How it works here
Wyoming Security Guard Rules & Regulations
Wyoming doesn't license security guards at the state level. There's no guard entry in state law or the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services' licensed-occupation directory - so your employer sets the bar.
Rules can change and local city ordinances aren't always publicized - confirm current requirements with your employer or the City of Cheyenne before starting a post there.
Questions
Common Questions
Do I need a license to work as a security guard in Wyoming?
No. Wyoming Statutes Title 33 covers licensed professions in the state, and security guards aren't included. The Wyoming Department of Workforce Services' occupational licensing directory doesn't list a guard credential either.
Can I carry a firearm as a security guard in Wyoming?
Wyoming has allowed permitless concealed carry for adults 21 and older since 2021. A voluntary reciprocity permit exists for guards who want a credential recognized in other states, but it isn't guard-specific.
Does Cheyenne have its own guard rules?
Check with your employer or the city directly before starting a post. Local ordinances can vary and change, so confirm current requirements rather than assuming.
Will this course actually help me get hired?
Yes. With no state license to lean on, Wyoming employers use training as their filter instead. A completed course is proof you're ready to work a post from day one.
How much do security guards make in Wyoming?
Wyoming's median security guard wage is $39,200 a year - $43,370 in Cheyenne and $43,250 in Casper. Guard jobs also turn over often, with roughly 157,200 annual openings nationwide from people moving on.
