Program Overview

The University of Cincinnati's Certificate in Jewish Education immerses students in Jewish Education theory and practice, deepening their subject expertise, pedagogical stance, and inquiry approaches. Partnering with the Mandel Teacher Educator Institute, the program prepares students for careers as social studies, humanities, and language arts teachers, as well as middle, high, and elementary school educators. Rooted in educational action research, the program encourages students to explore their own practice and design projects to support their teaching and learning.
