Recognizing that learning is a lifelong process, adults start or return to universities at any age to further their career goals. Many adults also enjoy less rigorous adult education programs to expand their understanding and knowledge about the religion, culture and language of the Jewish people. Social and networking groups are another way to learn and grow throughout life.
