Creates Wind and Nuclear Production Apprenticeship Grant Program.
This bill establishes a state-funded grant program to support new apprenticeships in New Jersey's wind energy and nuclear power industries. It provides grants to eligible organizations (like businesses, schools, or nonprofits) that partner with industry sponsors and meet federal accreditation standards for apprenticeship programs. Applicants must demonstrate workforce needs, recruitment plans, and financial commitments, with grants to be awarded starting in 2025. The program requires annual reporting on enrollment, completion rates, and job placements to evaluate effectiveness, aiming to address skilled labor gaps in these clean energy sectors.
