Program Information

Join Mechon Hadar for our sixth annual Rabbinic Yeshiva Intensive, to be held from Sunday night, March 11, through Wednesday afternoon, March 14, 2018.

The Yeshiva Intensive is a remarkable opportunity for rabbis to spend three days in an immersive Beit Midrash learning in shiurim with Mechon Hadar's stellar faculty, including Shai Held, Avital Hochstein, Ethan Tucker, Aviva Richman, Elie Kaunfer, Dena Weiss, Avi Killip and Jason Rubenstein.

The Yeshiva Intensive is not a professional skills workshop, but an opportunity for rabbis who really love learning Torah but have a thousand different daily commitments and responsibilities to fully immerse in learning for a few days.

Location

Mechon Hadar, meeting in the West End Synagogue, 190 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10023.

Cost

The cost of the program is $525, and includes both breakfast and lunch at the Yeshiva each day and an opening dinner on Sunday evening. Sign up before November 10th to receive an early bird registration price of $450. 

Please do not allow finances to be what keeps you away. If you wish to attend but cannot afford the program, please reach out to Rabbi Shai Held and we will work something out.

For more information on registration, please email Andrew Belinfante.
