IEA’s Summer Institute Filling Fast 

June 10, 2025

Programmed and hosted by the Center for Teaching and Learning, Idaho Education Association’s flagship professional development event is nearly at capacity for in-person learners. But there’s still time for educators — located anywhere in the state — to take part in Summer Institute’s online programming. The virtual option ensures no educator misses out on this premier learning experience. 

The big picture: IEA’s flagship professional development event is hosted in two formats:  

• In-person: July 30-Aug. 2 at Lewis-Clark State College, with the potential to earn up to four credits through Idaho State University.  

Online: July 30-31, with the potential to earn two credits.  

Important to note: Both formats share the theme “The Stories That Shape Us.” Summer Institute is free for members. Not a member? You can pay a fee to attend or join IEA here.  

Registration timeline: 

  • In-person deadline: July 7 (or when capacity is reached) 
  • Online-only deadline: July 15 
  • Note: In-person tickets are nearly sold out and may close before July 7, but a waiting list will be available.  

How to register: 

  1. Visit the Summer Institute page on IEA’s website 
  1. Use event password: ACCESS25 
  1. Apply code INSPIRE25 for free member tickets 

The bottom line: With in-person spots filling fast, the online option provides flexibility for Idaho educators to access quality professional development from anywhere in the state.
