Advanced Nuclear Energy Workforce Development Program

Under the direction of Governor Greg Abbott, the Texas Advanced Nuclear Reactor (ANR) Working Group published a report in 2024 which included the recommendation to develop a collaboration plan between workforce, education, and industry to support a homegrown nuclear workforce in Texas capable of meeting future advanced nuclear energy industry demand. This recommendation resulted in SB 1535. 

This bill amended Chapter 302, Labor Code, by adding §302.0081, which required Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) to create and administer the Advanced Nuclear Energy Workforce Development program to begin implementing ANR’s recommendation. 

Program Responsibilities

The responsibilities of Advanced Nuclear Energy Workforce Development Program include collaboration between the TWC, the Texas Education Agency (TEA), and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), in consultation with the Public Utility Commission (PUC) to:

  • Create a strategic plan for the state which will address labor supply gaps and talent retention issues in the advanced nuclear energy industry; 
  • Develop customized curriculum requirements for degree and certificate programs to prepare students for high-wage jobs in the advanced nuclear energy industry; and
  • Submit to certain legislative standing committees an annual report summarizing commission activities under this program.

Combined State Plan

WIOA requires states to develop and submit a four-year plan for achieving the state’s workforce goals. TWC’s WIOA Combined State Plan (CSP) includes information relating to the WIOA core programs and other programs administered by TWC, including the Senior Community Service Employment Program and the Wagner-Peyser Agricultural Outreach plan. The CSP also highlights goals and strategies to do the following:

  • Align, coordinate and integrate education, employment and training programs
  • Guide investments to ensure that training and services are meeting the needs of employers and individuals
  • Engage economic, education and workforce partners in improving the workforce development system
  • WIOA Combined State Plan Two-Year Modification PY 2026-2027

Annual Reports

Under WIOA, Texas must create a yearly report. It must outline efforts to meet the goals set for the workforce system. The report emphasizes:

  • Activities provided by WIOA statewide funds
  • Implementation of sector strategies and career pathways
  • Success stories about serving employers, communities, and individuals with barriers to employment
  • Customer satisfaction
  • Current or planned evaluation and research projects
