The Center for Studies in Jewish Education and Culture (CSJEC) research agenda seeks to advance our theoretical understandings of culture, relationship, and teacher identity and develop new models for teachers' professional development. The center also offers rigorous courses of study including a Graduate Certificate in Jewish Education focused on developing and improving educators' pedagogical skills and the acquisition of general content knowledge of Jewish culture and history.
