Applying for a BILLD Fellowship

What costs does a BILLD Fellowship cover?

Each fellowship covers the cost of tuition, lodging and meals related to attending the Institute. Each fellow also is eligible to receive a nominal travel stipend, which helps cover the coast of traveling to Madison.

Who should apply for a BILLD Fellowship?

BILLD is the only leadership training program designed exclusively for newer state legislators in the Midwest — primarily those in their first four years of legislative service.

Why should you apply for a BILLD Fellowship?

The BILLD program gives you the opportunity to help you become part of the next generation of legislative leaders.

BILLD will help you develop leadership skills. Through a series of workshops, the BILLD program will provide training to sharpen and develop the skills you need to become an effective legislative leader. Leaders from across the region will share their advice and experiences to help you develop into a leader for the 21st Century.

BILLD will help you
better understand key public policies. By focusing on the most important issues facing states today, scholars from the University of Wisconsin and outside experts will teach you how to analyze policies and programs, evaluate the information that you receive, and communicate effectively with constituents and colleagues.

BILLD will give you the opportunity to meet with the best and brightest emerging leaders in the Midwest. As a BILLD Fellow, you will come together with some of the most promising new legislators from across the region to share your knowledge and to learn from their experiences.
