Establishes workforce development training program for advanced transmission technology.
This bill creates the Advanced Transmission Technologies Workforce Development Program (ATT Program) within New Jersey's Department of Labor to train electrical engineers and utility workers in installing and managing advanced transmission technology systems. The program focuses on creating jobs, embedding training directly into infrastructure projects, using community benefit agreements, updating student career education, and retraining existing workers. It authorizes the department to use state, federal, and non-governmental funding sources for these efforts and requires annual evaluation reports to the Governor and Legislature starting July 1, 2027. The goal is to build a skilled workforce that supports faster deployment of transmission technology and reduces delays caused by technical capacity gaps.
