The Nebraska Developing Youth Talent Initiative is designed to support an industry-defined approach to develop a youth talent pipeline. Proposed by Governor Ricketts and approved by the legislature in 2015, the initiative requires collaboration between
Nebraska businesses and public schools to expose and excite student interest within the Manufacturing and IT industries.
Grant recipients will partner with schools to engage students to participate in hands-on career exploration and relevant workplace learning opportunities. The programs will target students beginning in the seventh and eighth grades and will demonstrate
sustainability and measurable impact.
