Yesod Europe: Professional Development Fund

Yesod Europe: Professional Development Fund


Deadline: Ongoing Opportunity

The Yesod Europe has launched the Professional Development Fund to support Jewish community professionals and educators in Europe to develop their professional skills and knowledge.

They are committed to supporting the creation of vibrant, meaningful, Jewish life through strong communities driven by inspired and engaged individuals.

Categories
Funds can be used for one-to-one learning or group courses, either online or in-person. There are several types of professional development that will be considered within the terms of this fund:

Professional skills development
Grow your personal toolkit of professional skills that are critical for success. Examples include (but are not limited to) courses for pedagogy, public speaking, experiential education, fundraising and budgeting.
Support for a training course taking place physically in a different country may also be subject to restrictions due to Covid 19. If you are considering a request to train abroad, please discuss this with their Professional Development Manager.
One-to-One Coaching
Work one-to-one with a professional coach in order to improve your skills, for example, in strategic planning, communication, fundraising, assertiveness, negotiation skills, management, and work-life balance. Yesod Europe will work with you to identify an excellent coach (in English or a language of your choice where possible) or you may request a specific coach. References will be required for the coach.
Peer visits
Travel to visit a peer organization in another community and learn from their best practices as well as develop stronger networks for collaboration.
Funding Information
Funds from $250 (USD) – $2,000 (USD) will be awarded, on a one-time basis, for successful applications from eligible individuals.
The funds must be spent within 8 months of receiving fund confirmation from Yesod Europe.
