The Career Israel program is divided into two segments: Orientation- Ulpan (first month of program) and the Internship component (four months).
The educational programming in the Orientation and Ulpan segment of the program is designed to acquaint you with Israeli society and to prepare you for a successful internship experience. The program begins with a five-day orientation in Jerusalem that both gives you the opportunity to get to know the other members of the group as well as to tour Israel's capital.
After the orientation, the group transfers to Tel Aviv for the Ulpan (Hebrew language study) segment of the program. If you will be in Tel Aviv for your internship, then you will move into your permanent housing at this time. If you will be interning in Jerusalem, you will be living in temporary housing for the duration of the Ulpan. In addition to the Ulpan classes, there will be afternoon programming that includes:
During the internship segment of the program there will be educational programs 2-3 times a month. Programs include:
Sderot and the Disenagement from Gaza
Haifa- A City of Religious Diversity
The Galillee and Golan
Dialogue Seminar with Israeli students in Ein Gedi
Ending Seminar
Continuation Ulpan (additional cost)
The large majority of our participants have been to Israel in the past, so we make every effort to take the programming up a notch by bringing you first-class speakers and creating unique encounters with Israelis and Israeli society.
