The first cohort of the Lilmod Ul’Lamed Women’s Educator Programme have graduated in a central London ceremony.
A collaboration between the United Synagogue, Mizrachi and Bnei Akiva, Lilmod Ul’Lamed (“To learn and to teach”) is an 18 month programme giving university-age women high-level training in teaching and education.
Course topics included public speaking, preparing shiurim and Jewish pedagogy. The seven participants, aged 22-23, also represented the partner organisations at major educational events.
Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis praised the “wonderful initiative which meets a clear need for ongoing Torah learning and educational training for our next generation of female educators and role models.
