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.
