As dual enrollment programs expand, Behavioral Intervention Teams (BITs) and Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management (BTAM) teams are increasingly working with students across K-12 and higher education settings. These teams must navigate complex questions around jurisdiction, information sharing, parental involvement, FERPA, institutional policies, and coordinated response.
Join NABITA for a discussion of the opportunities and challenges in supporting dual-enrollment students through effective BIT and BTAM collaboration. Explore how teams can work across educational settings while accounting for developmental considerations, differing institutional practices, and legal obligations.
Presenters will share practical strategies for strengthening cross-institutional partnerships, coordinating support, and promoting campus and school safety. Whether your institution has an established dual enrollment program, is considering launching one, or is just beginning to encounter these situations, you'll leave with practical insights and a valuable opportunity to learn from colleagues facing similar challenges.
Bring your questions, share your experiences, and join a collaborative conversation about one of the fastest-growing and most nuanced areas of behavioral intervention practice.
