About
Heled – Educational Programs – "Train up a child in the way he should go" (Proverbs 22:6), is an entrepreneurial organization, providing an up-to-date response to the current challenges in the field of Jewish-Israeli identity and culture – in training, guidance, and support of educational teams and through the development and implementation of various programs for the state sector.
"Heled" develops a variety of educational content, experiential activities, textbooks, and teacher training, which are successful and reputable among principals, teachers, and students alike.
We strive for participants in our activities to feel 'at home' in this culture and therefore develop innovative and experiential teaching methods, accessible and relevant content – all from a pluralistic and inclusive approach.
The organization is supervised and approved by the Ministry of Education, has won a considerable number of tenders, and has expanding scopes of activity from year to year.
