Community Learning

JTS’s community learning programs extend our sophisticated scholarship and meaningful insights into Torah beyond the classroom to Jewish learners around the world. Our online and in-person programs are highly varied and flexible, allowing Jewish leaders across North America to bring customized JTS learning to their communities, while offering regular opportunities to join us for educational programs on our New York campus.

Our rich trove of online resources provides 24/7 access to Jewish learning for anyone who seeks it. And our programs for high school students give teens a chance to learn with top scholars about the relevance of Jewish texts to their lives as global citizens today.
