The FUSE Summer Professional Learning Institutes (PLI) kickoff each fellow's journey. Multiple sessions are held each summer. Fellows are assigned to specific groups in order to maintain a healthy diversity of teachers and facilitate deeper collaboration. The connections our teachers forge during the summer PLIs serve as a launching point for continued networking and collaboration throughout the school year.
This page contains detailed information about lodging and schedules. When booking your hotel rooms and making travel plans, be sure you are using the correct dates for the PLI your teachers are attending. Year 1 Fellows will attend the PLI on June 25-27 and returning Year 2 Fellows will attend the July 9-10 PLI. All sessions are held at the AT&T Hotel and Conference Center at the University of Texas at Austin.
