Implementing the BILT Model of Business Engagement: A Guide for Strengthening Industry Commitment for Technical Programs
This 12-page document was developed by the National Convergence Technology Center (CTC) in conjunction with CORD (Center for Occupational Research and Development) to provide a detailed guide to implementing the Business and Industry Leadership Team (BILT) model. The BILT model involves creating a group whose membership consists of executives, hiring managers, and technicians from local businesses that hire graduates from technical programs. This allows college technical programs to have direct input into which knowledge, skills, and abilities graduates are gaining to help better prepare them for careers in their field. Topics covered in the document include: Background, Benefits of BILT, Essential Elements of a BILT, Preparing For Your First BILT Meeting, Reporting Back to the BILT, and more.
