Charlottesville, VA, Nov 16, 2009—Darim Online, a Covenant Foundation grantee that seeks to strengthen Jewish education through effective and robust use of 21stcentury online technology, is accepting applications for its Darim Educator Fellows program.

The fellowship semester, which runs from February to June, includes up to four hours per month of professional learning and additional hours devoted to the educational project.

Darim Educator Fellows will also participate in the Darim Online Learning Network for Educators.
