Welcome to the Northwest Indian Language Institute 2024 Summer Institute Registration!  

This year's Institute will run from June 23 through June 29. Find more information about  NILI Summer Offerings! 

Summer Institute (SI) classes support teachers to strengthen language learner and speaker growth. The beginner teachers' track focuses on core Indigenous language teacher skills. The experienced teachers' track goes more into depth into some elements of teaching, looking at topics such as self-assessment, developing activities tied to student levels, and building language use throughout the community. People in the beginner’s track will typically have one year or less of teaching regularly in the classroom. Those in the experienced track will typically have a year or more. There may be some exceptions, depending on how intensive an educator’s experience may or may not have been in a given year or more. If you are uncertain what track you best fit in, please reach out to us at nwili@uoregon.edu or 541-346-0730. We’ll be happy to work with you to find your best place!  

All SI participants will take part in TRaiLS, our discussion series for language revitalization practitioners. You do not need to register separately for TRaiLS.
