S 3552 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes Career and Technical Education Dual Enrollment Grant Program; appropriates $5 million.

This bill establishes a $5 million grant program to expand dual enrollment opportunities in career and technical education (CTE) for high school students. Public colleges and universities in New Jersey can apply for grants to offer college-level CTE courses on campus or in high schools, allowing students to earn college credits while still in high school. To qualify, institutions must submit detailed plans including program capacity, expected student participation, and sustainability beyond the grant period, with funding awarded competitively. The program requires annual reporting on student participation, workforce impact, and recommendations for future funding.
