For Training Providers


To apply for certification of one or more training programs, training providers must follow the basic steps below.

1.) The training provider must be licensed, registered or otherwise exempt by the MN Office of Higher Education or other governing state agency.

2.) The training provider must list their programs and/or courses on ISEEK.org.

3.) Once all programs and/or courses are listed on ISEEK, the training provider should fill out and submit the WIA Training Provider Application to DEED.

4.) DEED will review the application and notify the training provider with our decision.

Training providers applying for WIA-certification will be required to participate in the Consumer Report, which helps consumers to make more informed choices by providing comparable information on the performance outcomes of training programs.
