Beit Berl College

Beit Berl College is one of Israel’s oldest and largest public colleges, and a leader in education, society, and the arts.

Founded in the pre-state era as an institution for continuing education, it became a teacher college in the 1960’s and then fully licensed as a multi-disciplinary academic college in 1979.

Renowned for academic excellence and innovation, Beit Berl College sees education as a vehicle for social mobility, equality and justice for all sectors of Israeli society. Beit Berl College’s graduates comprise 20% of all Israeli secular public school teachers, Jewish and Arab, and hold prominent positions in Israeli national and local government, private and non-profit sectors, and the global arts community.

We offer an extensive range of undergraduate and graduate degrees, as well as certificate programs in three major faculties:

The Faculty of Education – known for its rigorous and entrepreneurial approach to teacher education and community education, the faculty serves the pre-service and professional development of teachers from early childhood to secondary education as well as informal education, at-risk youth and special education. The faculty includes the Arab Academic Institute of Education, which trains teachers for the Israeli Arab education system with instruction in Arabic, as well as research and library facilities focusing on Arabic language and culture.
