This is a pilot year for the Madrichim Micro-Credential - we are thrilled to have several youth who will join us.  As a community we want to invest in the next generations and create meaningful multi-generational experiences at Kol Haverim.  Here is how we think having a Madrichim Micro-Credential might do that:

• A service learning community supports the collective learning and capacity building of the youth working in our religious school 

• By having a learning community that focuses on each person, we can tailor how each madrichim can contribute with their time, interests, talents and even their superpowers (Why do I need to know my superpower? https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/interviewing/what-is-your-superpower-answers) 

• A service learning project supports individual and community needs (See video below for further info)

• A micro credential lets you show what your time and effort has accomplished (See article below for why)

To earn a credential you need to:

• • 1. Complete 2 years of service in Hebrew, Judaica or the specific Grade Level

       1. 1. 1. • If you recieved an email/text an invitation the 2022 - 2023 year of service counts towards your first year!

    2. During each of those 2 years you:

  • Engage in a minimum of 25 hours in direct service with students 

    2. 1. 1. 1. • 1. • This means be in a religious school classroom one day of the week during the weeks  Kol Haverim religious school is in session - yep, totally do able!
