The iCenter is the North American hub for advancing the field of Israel Education. We believe education is key to inspiring generations of Jewish youth with an enduring connection to Israel and the Jewish people. We meet Jewish youth everywhere they are: in summer camps, on Birthright Israel trips, in Jewish youth organizations, at Jewish day and supplementary schools, in public schools, at campus Hillels. We empower and inspire educators with the knowledge, skills, content, and confidence to inspire young people to experience Israel and Israelis as integral to their lives as Jews and human beings. Since its founding in 2008, The iCenter has reached over 200,000 young Jews. Equally important, we have transformed the professional Field of Israel Education. Taking a systemic approach, The iCenter has created a dynamic ecosystem of passionate and knowledgeable educators, rich and nuanced content, and learner-centered institutions. In the process, The iCenter has moved Israel Education to the heart of Jewish education and communal life.
