JSLI Rabbinical and Cantorial School

Jewish Spiritual Leaders Institute (JSLI)
Since 2011, JSLI has been the world’s first fully online Rabbinical and Cantorial School, pioneering a progressive and accessible approach to Jewish clergy education. Our curriculum is centered around weekly live Zoom classes, fostering a dynamic learning environment for students across the globe. To date, we have proudly ordained over 240 Rabbis and Cantors.

Each session begins with prayer (davening), followed by an in-depth exploration of essential Jewish topics such as Shabbat, Brit Milah vs. Brit Shalom, Ethical Kashrut, Halacha, and Responsa—focusing on how these concepts shape our roles as clergy and impact the diverse communities we serve. Students also engage in weekly Divrey Torah (sermons) on the relevant Torah portion, refining their ability to teach and inspire.

JSLI provides comprehensive training in Jewish rituals and liturgy, offering masterclasses in officiating at Weddings, Funerals, and B’nai Mitzvah ceremonies.
