As an institution that participates in the Academic Quality Improvement Process (AQIP) for accreditation we are committed to making data driven decisions. Sometimes we have examined data narrowly and written justification for a decision we have already made or for a potential initiative such as a grant proposal. Several white papers, grant applications, studies and cases for support have been based on labor market information, industry trends, and occupation projections. The research for this paper takes a broader view by starting with all occupations in Wyoming (demand) and all certificates of completion and associates of applied science degrees currently offered by NWCCD (supply).

The WCCC took action in October 2018 to increase the tuition rate from $94 per credit hour to $99 per credit hour and raised the tuition cap from 12-credits to 15-credits. Per the recommendation and action to maintain the existing tuition rate in September 2019 below the Tuition Policy framework, the EC met to discuss the impact and implications of a tuition rate increase including the potential differential tuition structure for the out-of-district students. Of consideration in the conversation was also the work currently being conducted by the WCCC Sustainable Funding Workgroup as well as the realities regarding the current 10% budget cuts and pending additional 10% budget cuts. Per the Tuition Policy adopted in October 2018: Tuition Policy The current tuition rate is $99 per credit hour for in-state students, $148 per credit hour for WUE (and Nebraska) students, and $297 per credit hour for out-of-state and international students.
