The Jim Joseph Foundation Fellows – Leading Educators Online is a new, prestigious, leading-edge fellowship program, funded by the Jim Joseph Foundation in partnership with The Lookstein Center at Bar-Ilan University.

Leading Educators Online will:

• Identify, direct and empower Fellows to develop and lead online collaborative communities in their professional fields.


• Provide leading edge professional development to outstanding Jewish educators from formal (e.g. supplementary and day schools) and informal Jewish education settings (e.g. congregational, camps, youth groups, community centers).


• Advance new ways of learning and working together to bring about qualitative changes in the way Jewish educators work with others as they learn.


• Guide Jewish education to the forefront of 21st century education.

Both your organization and your educators can be key players in the development of this networking, learning and growing experience.
