  The Mishpacha in Israel Seminar for families with children. Experience Israel together in a unique, interactive format.Jewish Family Educators transform sites around Israel to living history. Family friendly environments and the activities incorporate multi-generational teaching techniques. Explore together the relevance of Israel and Jewish values to our lives in the Diaspora.

2. Congregational Leadership Seminar in Israel
  The Manhigut Seminar is an Israel based leadership study program for congregational and religious school boards with community professionals.
  Israel Experience programs are powerful tools for the enhancement of Jewish knowledge and commitment. A Rabbi that spends two weeks in Israel with his/her lay leadership in an intensive Jewish study framework, can transform the congregation.
  This 12-15 day seminar combines study and Israel travel. The seminar goes well beyond the realm of the traditional Israel tour. Staffed by a congregational professional and by a senior member of our educational staff who serves as tour educator and educational facilitator. The program incorporates a wide variety of pedagogic techniques including text study sessions, seminars, music, drama and values clarification sessions. The program offers a significant look at the concept of Jewish commitment and community.

  • A chronological approach to the teaching of Jewish culture and history. Begin with Abraham and culminate in contemporary Israel.
