WELCOME TO YOUR BAI APPLICATION!!!

Congratulations! You have taken the first step in becoming part of the BAI family! As shared in the Scope of Work and on our website, this summer's program will be a combination of virtual professional development on Thursdays and Fridays, plus the opportunity for in-person field trips (on Friday afternoons) AND in-person time at internships Mondays-Wednesdays.

This application is more of an adventure in getting to know you! It includes answering questions, creating a video, and providing additional documents. It looks different for returning staff vs. new staff. Please make sure that you have read the Scope of Work HERE carefully. Please note that you can SAVE your application and come back to it. To do this, click on the square at the top that says, "save my progress and resume later."
