Graduate Certificate in Jewish Educational Leadership

MTEI and Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion are delighted to offer a Graduate Certificate in Jewish Educational Leadership. All MTEI participants have the option to apply for the Certificate Program. Once admitted to the program, MTEI seminars become part of the course plan. Rooted in an innovative educational action research orientation, program participants will construct questions about their practice and design projects to investigate these questions. Certificate candidates are eligible to receive scholarships from the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Foundation.

The advantages of the certificate program

“The close relationships I built with faculty and colleagues in the MTEI graduate certificate program gave me the support I needed to do things I never would have thought possible before. Since participating in the program, I have written two papers for publication, presented at professional and academic conferences, and also felt empowered to make a major career change.”
