Introduction to Judaism is offered 3 times a year with cohorts beginning in January, May, and October. Classes meet weekly from 7:00-8:45 pm; meeting days vary by cohort. One week each month, class will begin at 6pm for student presentations. Please contact us for specific dates or additional information.
Course completion is one of the requirements for the conversion process.
The program is in a collaborative partnership with the Miller Introduction to Judaism Program of American Jewish University.
Students must have a sponsor who is a member of the Rocky Mountain Rabbis & Cantors in order to take the class. Students will meet with their sponsors at least six times during the ITJ class, and additional meetings will be scheduled for students who plan to convert to Judaism. Our rabbis and cantors will guide and mentor students to ensure they are getting the most from the classes.
