Implementing the BILT Model of Business Engagement: A Guide for Strengthening Industry Commitment for Technical Programs
![](local/data/caches/images/scaled/img_00030836_300x300.jpg)
This collection was developed by the National Convergence Technology Center (CTC) in conjunction with the Center for Occupational Research and Development (CORD) to provide a detailed guide for implementing the Business and Industry Leadership Team (BILT) model. The BILT model "puts businesses in a co-leadership role for college technical programs so they have direct input into the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) that program graduates should possess 12-36 months into the future ultimately producing candidates the businesses are much more likely to hire."
The collection is composed of a document about BILT implementation, slide deck templates, and script template and tip sheets. The 21-page BILT implementation document provides a detailed guide for implementing the BILT model. Specifically, professionals can follow this document step by step to either convert a traditional business council into a more engaged BILT or create a BILT from scratch. The BILT model encourages more engagement from an employer group so that it can "co-lead" a technical program by playing an active role in helping steer curriculum to meet workforce needs. The slide deck templates cover an initial orientation talk and a KSA voting meeting. The script templates and tip sheets cover the orientation script and KSA invitation script.
