Each morning is spent in deep learning with master educators. Professionals apply to a specific topic for a week-long immersive learning experience. Realizing that some Deep Dives may fall into more than one area, professionals apply to specific topic and their 8-10 choices are loosely organized into three general categories: Beit Midrash, Jewish Arts and Culture and Jewish Thought and Philosophy. Professionals are encouraged to choose a deep dive that might nudge them (gently) in a new direction and/or offer them a new perspective on Jewish life and learning.
