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.
