Best Practices Institute
The Best Practices Institute (BPI) is a 3-day conference held in the spring that examines how differentiation looks through the lens of a particular curricular framework or content area (i.e. math, literacy, science, technology).
Our next Best Practices Institute is scheduled for March 15-17, 2012.
Fall Symposium
The Fall Symposium is a compact, 2-day conference designed for educators who are beginning the journey toward differentiation. This institute helps participants gain an understanding of the attitudes and practices that support optimal learning environments for today’s diverse learners.
Our next Fall Symposium: Getting Started with Differentiation is scheduled for November 18-19, 2011.
Key presenters include Carol Tomlinson, Kristina Doubet, Marcia Imbeau, and a host of other amazing contributors.

Summer Institute on Academic Diversity
Now in its 16th year, the Summer Institute on Academic Diversity (SIAD) is a 5-day conference designed to reinforce the principles and practices of differentiation. SIAD features morning sessions with Dr. Carol Tomlinson, afternoon break-out sessions with DI experts from across the country, as well as personalized sessions tailored for individual grade level, subject area, or job specific needs.
Two summer institutes are offered based on participants’ experience with DI:
- July 9-13, 2012 – Week One is the beginning-level institute designed for educators with limited experience and comfort with implementing or guiding differentiated instruction.
- July 16-20, 2012 – Week Two is designed for educators who have previously attended the beginning-level SIAD or whose comfort and experience with differentiated instruction are already established.
Attendance is limited. Register early!
