Senate Bill No. 1113 mandates the Board of Regents for Higher Education to conduct a study on workforce development initiatives within the state. The bill requires the board to submit a report detailing the findings of this study to the relevant joint standing committee of the General Assembly by January 1, 2026. This new section is inserted into current law as Section 1, effective from the date of passage.

The bill does not impose any fiscal impact on the state or municipalities, as it is expected that the Connecticut State Colleges and Universities (CSCU) will utilize existing resources to carry out the study. There are no deletions from current law noted in the text of the bill. The Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee has reported the bill favorably, with a vote of 14 in favor and 3 against.
