ANNOUNCING COHORT 3 OF THE GRADUATE DEGREE IN ISRAEL EDUCATION

The iCenter and The George Washington University have announced Cohort 3 of the Graduate Degree in Israel Education. Thirty-one in-service professionals spanning the United States, Mexico, and Israel, were selected through a rigorous screening and admissions process for this prestigious opportunity. Members of Cohort 3 work in Jewish federations, foundations, advocacy and social justice organizations, day and supplementary schools, Israel travel programs, experiential education institutions, universities, campus Hillels, JCCs, Maccabi USA, and the Jewish Agency for Israel. Students enroll in a one-year Graduate Certificate program that ultimately can be leveraged toward a second-year Master’s Degree program.
