BJE helps enable educators to participate in continuing education by accessing funding for professional development and encouraging participation in educational programs. In February, two conferences with exceptional learning opportunities for educators will be held in Los Angeles. One, a 3-day conference of the North American Alliance for Day School Education, will take place February 6-8. The second, LimmudLA, to be held February 18-21, includes a special segment for teachers, taking place February 20-21.
Participation in such conferences can be cost prohibitive for educators and schools. As part of professional development funding from LAUSD secured on behalf of day schools by BJE, 22 local educators will be funded for participation at the Day School Conference and 13 educators are funded to attend the LimmudLA program. These subsidies, amounting to over $10,000, are part of an aggregate $1.5 million in support of student learning at the twenty schools in the BJE consortium.
