The Florence Melton Adult Mini-School is an innovative concept for Jewish learners from all backgrounds, aimed at enabling Jewish adults to learn seeriously about our heritage and culture in an inspiring course of study. Melton's sophisticated, sequential curriculum was written by a team of scholars and educators at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. It introduces the student to the classical heritage of the Jewish people and follows its development into contemporary forms of Judaism while maintaining a pluralist balance. There are no tests, no grades, and no homework. All students who complete the 2-year curriculum receive a certificate from the Hebrew University's Melton Center.
