Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill requires the Department of Workforce Development to include 16
specific occupational areas, commonly referred to as “career clusters,” for the youth
apprenticeship program. Under current law, DWD is required to approve and
maintain a list of approved career clusters, but is not required to include any specific
career cluster.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
