The L.A. Pincus Fund for Jewish Education in the Diaspora

An in-service training program for teachers, Marseilles, France

Training and In-service Training of Educational Personnel

The Pincus Fund places high priority on the training of educational personnel. The Fund has supported programs which trained new teachers for networks of Jewish schools. A wide variety of projects have provided in-service training for veteran teachers in the use of new teaching methods, approaches, and materials; and have strengthened the Jewish Studies background of educational personnel. A number of the Fund's projects have provided Jewish Studies and leadership training for youth leaders, lay leaders, and community professionals. Some projects have trained young adults to serve as madrichim in small Jewish communities.
