SI Updates
Sacramento Program
The 2010 SI Program: Sacramento is now available.
Sacramento Summer Institute Registration is Now Closed
Registration for Sacramento Summer Institute is now closed as we are at capacity. AVID offers a number of other Institutes this year, including two in California - the San Diego Summer Institutes (July 26-30 and August 02-06). We are still accepting registrations for all other Institutes except for Orlando and Dallas 1, and most strands are still available. For dates, locations and hotel information, visit www.avid.org, log onto MyAVID, and follow the Summer Institute links.
If you are already registered, and would like to make a change to your registration, please visit the Registration Help page.
Our hotel room blocks at the Sheraton, Hyatt, and Marriott Residence Inn are full. There is still limited availability at the Citizen Hotel. Click on the link below to the hotel reservation page.
Groups staying at an outlying hotel will need to provide their own daily transportation to the convention center, Hyatt, Sheraton, and/or Marriott Residence Inn where all Summer Institute activities will be held.
If you have questions or concerns regarding Sacramento SI registrations:
Sites/districts in California, please contact your Regional AVID Director.
Sites/districts in all other states, please call (303) 436-2200.
