Overview
Chapter Leadership Training Conference (CLTC) is a 13-day program designed to develop and strengthen the leadership skills of BBYO chapter leaders. At CLTC, teens from across North America will form mock chapters and learn specific skills that help them lead their chapter at home. CLTC builds on a curriculum based on teens focusing on leadership development, program planning, and hands-on experience. CLTC is expected to reach 700 teens across 8 sessions throughout the summer.
The Jewish Educator is responsible for teaching daily sessions/classes. Each educator will be responsible for preparing material on a topic area, with support of other staff. They will support teens in collaboration with leadership staff on Shabbat planning, providing insight and content for evening and special programs, and help to create a pluralistic learning culture at camp. This role requires an individual who has strong Judaic knowledge and background, as well as some experience teaching Jewish content.
