Culture & Community
The vibe was really welcoming and made it easy to stay focused. It also felt like a community, not just a class, which made the learning way more enjoyable. The teachers really tried to make the topics connect to us, which helped a lot.
David T.
I enjoyed it, the open discussion aspect was very helpful since most topics relied on quite a lot of backhand knowledge I might not have been well versed in. The open discussion allowed myself and my classmates to raise points for clarification.
Julian K.
The program was attractive due to the job prospect. However the content and style of classes were very engaging and enjoyable!

Internship.
JITI assists participants in securing a summer internship or job with a reputable business or organization. We are continually expanding our network of partner companies and professionals to place students in roles that align with their interests and fields of study—whether in tech startups, corporate offices, non-profits, construction, medicine, or other industries.
Rather than putting your Judaism on hold for a summer job, JITI enables you to advance both your career and your Torah learning simultaneously.
