This resolution encourages the Utah State Board of Education and local school districts to expand career and technical education programs focused on the nuclear, mining, and fiber optics industries, including coursework that could lead to partial or full industry certifications such as electric lineworker credentials. It also encourages schools and the Catalyst Center, a state workforce training resource, to partner directly with employers to deliver hands-on instruction aligned with what those industries need. As a resolution rather than a law, it does not require any of these actions or provide funding for them — it simply expresses legislative support and encouragement for the State Board of Education and local districts to pursue these efforts on their own.
