Join us for Rav HaMakhshir 2026, a four-day seminar at JTS in New York City from June 1–4, 2026. Designed to equip rabbis with both the halakhic foundations and practical skills of kashrut supervision, the program combines text study, applied training, and on-site field visits. Participants will gain the tools to supervise synagogue, school, and camp kitchens, communal events, bakeries, and restaurants with confidence and care. Cost is $800 per person (includes breakfasts (4), lunches (3), and one dinner). Housing is available at JTS’ Residence Hall for $125/night; you may reserve your room directly through this registration form.
We have reserved a block of rooms at the Hotel Belleclaire, 2175 Broadway, New York, NY 10024 (77th and Broadway). You will receive further details upon completion of your registration.
Limited scholarships are available; reach out to Noam Kornsgold to request financial assistance.
