Each of the four terms has ten classes over twenty weeks; there are two terms per year. Classes are held via Zoom so that everyone can interact with everyone else in a video environment.
In addition to the classes, one-on-one sessions are held each month with each student to further their development and spiritual growth in their personal faith.
In each term there is a primary focus, but all themes – Storytelling, Multi-faith Foundations, Spirituality, and Jewish Foundations – are touched upon in each term.
