morePlease forward this website to your friends, relatives, congregants, choir, baseball team, Facebook Friends etc.
Why? Two good reasons:
1. Both adult education and professional development are part of the key mission of NewCAJE. We are doing what we do best.
2. This is how NewCAJE is going to try to be as self-sufficient as possible. Financially, it won't work unless many of you are willing to forward the emails and publicize the webinars within your own community. Thanks for your support. .
Thanks to the family of Jewish educators for believing in our mission and for your help and ongoing support.

SHALOM and WELCOME
What is NewCAJE? It is a new pluralistic coalition of people who are involved in the transmission of Jewish education and culture. We are parents,principals,classroom teachers, rabbis and cantors, writers, artists, musicans,storytellers, performers, communal service workers, camp personnel, professors, students and layleaders. A major piece of our mission is to provide opportunities for adult education and on-going professional development. NewCAJE is a 501C3 religious and educational non-profit organization
What is a Lehrhaus? A Lehrhaus, as we have most recently used the term, is a one and a half hour workshop. The term originated in Frankfurt, Germany in 1921 when Franz Rosenzweig founded The Free Jewish House of Study/Beit Midrash. There and then it promoted free inquiry in a pluralistic setting where adults with all levels of Jewish educational backround could deepen their knowledge of Jewish sources. Here and now, we want to do the same.
What is ONLINE? It depends. It definitely means that you have the opportunity to learn from your own house either at a time convenient to you or in real time when you can ask a question of the instructor. But ONLINE can mean you have a choice to connect by telephone or through your computer. It's that easy.
