Summer Institute for Educators


The University of Louisiana at Lafayette's Center for Gifted Education is an instructional, research and service center-- one of only about 20 such comprehensive centers in the nation and the only one of its scope in the State of Louisiana.

Directed by Dr. Joy L. Davis,  a member of the College of Education faculty, the Center serves as a coordinating agency for UL Lafayette's extensive activities in the education of gifted and creative students by offering:

  • Professional development opportunities for teachers (including the state's only master's degree program in Education of the Gifted and special workshops for teachers of gifted children)
  • Summer enrichment programs for academically, creatively, and artistically talented pre-college students.
  • Program and staff development assistance for area school districts.
  • Consultation services for parents and guardians of gifted children.

A major effort of the Center for Gifted Education is the coordination and facilitation of research on the identification and development of high potential.
