Clone of Adult Learning

A past recipient of the GOLD Solomon Schechter Award for excellence in Adult Education programming, Temple Emunah’s reputation as a center for adult education is known throughout the greater Boston area. The Adult Education Committee of Temple Emunah has been in existence for more than 20 years, and has evolved over the years from a program consisting of one educational series to a program boasting a myriad of formal and informal courses leveraging our access to scholars of nearby educational institutions, our success working cooperatively with other synagogues in the area, our learned Rabbis and our phenomenally educated and motivated congregants. Making full use of all of the available resources, we are able to provide multiple entry points for our diverse community, from beginner to advanced in subjects ranging from davenning, Hebrew literacy, Biblical text study and Philosophy. The caliber of the teachers for the formal programs is outstanding, most of whom have national if not international reputations in Jewish scholarship.
