M² Deep Dive Israel Application

Welcome back, SEC Alumni!


The M² team is excited to offer you a unique opportunity to re-engage with our signature Jewish values–driven educational approach through a 5-day Deep Dive in Israel, taking place March 9–14, 2026.


As an educator whose work intersects with Israel education, you face evolving realities in how Israel is taught, understood, and experienced. Deep Dive Israel places your learning in a new context that challenges assumptions and strengthens your ability to lead Israel education with empathy, confidence, and purpose.


Please note: Participation includes two required virtual gatherings:

  • Pre-Trip Webinar: Monday, February 23, 12:00–1:30 PM ET

  • Post-Trip Webinar: Tuesday, May 5, 12:00–1:30 PM ET

We’re excited to be back in touch and to hear about the work you’ve been doing since SEC. If you have any questions, please reach out to Saadiah McIntosh, Program Operations Director, at saadiah@ieje.org.

Please note that you can save your progress at any time and resume this application.

Program Fee
Please note that participation in the program includes a $500 fee, due upon acceptance.

Because the program is already highly subsidized, additional financial aid is not available.
