What’s the process in getting approved for the state of Minnesota?
Minnesota has a reciprocal recognition policy that allows residents of Minnesota to enroll in out-of-state training programs like ours under certain conditions. This means you can determine your eligibility for receiving medical coding funding for the Coding Clarified medical coding Program.
Minnesota’s Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) states:
“If the training provider has no physical location in Minnesota and the program is listed on the state ETPL where the training provider is located, and the training relates to in-demand industries in Minnesota, Minnesota will recognize the designation of the state where the training provider is located.”
View the Minnesota ETPL reciprocity policy.
Because of this reciprocal recognition, Minnesota residents can be approved to use WIOA funding to attend our Wisconsin-licensed medical coding program if they meet standard eligibility requirements.
To verify that Coding Clarified is a current approved training provider in Wisconsin, you can view our listing directly on the Wisconsin ETPL site: Coding Clarified DWD WI Provider Listing.
