We are pleased by your interest in the Department of Education and Community at Kinneret College.
The department aspires to be a trailblazer in the evolving and reciprocal relationship between education and community. We are committed to shaping future professionals who combine contemporary knowledge, practical skills, and strong personal and social competencies. Our goal is to prepare our graduates for success, growth, and leadership in a wide range of roles relevant to the 21st century, within a supportive and intellectually stimulating learning environment. Our experienced and dedicated faculty accompanies students throughout their academic journey, fostering both professional development and personal growth.
This is the first program of its kind in Israel that places the integration of education and community at its core. The curriculum blends philosophical, sociological, and psychological perspectives on education with a deep understanding of social and institutional community structures. This unique combination allows students to engage with both theoretical knowledge and practical experience in real-world settings.
The department’s mission is to offer its graduates a broad, interdisciplinary perspective on the world of education and community. The program opens doors to a variety of employment opportunities—whether working with children and youth, managing educational programs, leading initiatives in non-profit organizations, or pursuing advanced academic studies. We are proud to meet the growing demand for skilled educators and community leaders, particularly in the diverse communities surrounding the college.
With a modern and comprehensive academic program, excellence in teaching, and personalized student guidance, we prepare our students to be thoughtful, capable professionals. We encourage critical thinking, social responsibility, and lifelong learning as essential elements of both their careers and personal development.

We look forward to welcoming you to our department and supporting your journey as a future leader in education and community.

I look forward to meeting you.
