Digital Skills Academy
This two-week summer school brings together ORT students to benefit from world class facilities at our school in Sofia, Bulgaria.
An intensive package of tuition and collaborative projects with peers from across Europe and Israel awaits participants who have completed the selection process with video applications displaying their digital expertise.
Students select a specialist track to follow during the academy, either photography, video or audio production. Under the tuition of professionals, students will hone their knowledge and explore new skills in different environments. Sessions include visits to professional environments such as TV and film studios.
The summer school aims to enrich students’ Jewish heritage, identity, values and practices through participation in a traditional Shabbat program and a Tikkun Olam community project consisting of voluntary work.
Students acquire the knowledge, skills and experience to progress their passion and expertise in digital technology to the next level, including further education, training and future employment.
