The DEEP Consortium is a collaboration among organizations that provide professional development to educators working in Jewish Day Schools. Built on a Professional Learning Community model, we share best practices, resources and ideas on how to implement effective interventions, so that both our member organizations and the day school field as a whole will pursue and realize professional development opportunities that optimize impact.

DEEP is open to organizations who develop embedded expertise in Jewish day schools. If you believe your organization may be eligible to participate, please contact David Farbman, Project Manager for DEEP.
