Authorizes school districts to establish electric vehicle certification programs.

S 3642 authorizes New Jersey school districts with existing automotive programs to partner with private companies to create electric vehicle (EV) certification programs. These programs would train students in EV-related careers like automotive technology, engineering, and maintenance, with districts issuing certifications to successful completers. School districts may use national industry standards and consult the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities when developing these programs. The bill directly affects eligible school districts and their students seeking EV career pathways, with no funding or mandates specified.
