  Detailed information on registration and costs for all summer trainings are forthcoming.

For Lay Leaders:

• Hillel's International Lay Leadership Institutes - The Lay Leadership Institutes are one-day, regional events, designed to encourage a maximum number of participants from each board and encourage regional networking. The Institutes focus on the sharing of best practices, effective board governance, fiscal management, fundraising, current campus issues, and the board's role in fostering Jewish identity and pluralism.  Institutes are held on alternate years.  Hillel also convenes an annual institute specifically for local Hillel Board Chairs and Presidents. 

Please Note: Scholarship money is available for all Hillel student conferences. It is Hillel's intent that financial considerations not prevent student participation in any Hillel student conference. Please e-mail or call the contact person for each conference for more detailed information.
