Teaching certificate

About the plan

This program is aimed at MSc and PhD students at the Weizmann Institute, as well as the institute’s post-doctoral fellows and alumni. The objective of this 2-year program is to help research students gain knowledge on the theory and practice of science education, and get acquainted with practical tools for teaching. Some of the program’s graduates become practitioners (teachers, members of development teams) and leaders in the Israeli science education system, while others continue in academia, where the knowledge and skills they have acquired enable them to support the Israeli science education system both as scientists and as professors. The teaching certificate program includes 7 theoretical courses and a practicum comprised of experience in a school environment and participation in a development project in the Science Teaching department. The program is available in Hebrew only.
