The U.S. Labor Department announced Monday a grant of more than $2.7 million to train eastern Utah workers for careers in multiple sectors of the energy industry.

The grant, awarded to the College of Eastern Utah, is part of nearly $27 million in investments made in support of the nation's energy work force through the President's High Growth Job Training Initiative.

Courses will include safety, instrumentation and technical skills certifications with the capacity to train up to 2,100 people annually. Classes also will be offered to Hispanic and American Indian populations in their native languages.

Upon completion of the curriculum, participants will be offered additional training tailored to mining and power generation.
