HDS Religion and Public Life offers a variety of opportunities for current and future educators to learn about religious literacy. Current HDS students can pursue the education track of the Certificate in Religion and Public Life and assist RPL staff in research and resource development. We also offer an annual Summer Institute open to educators in the United States and occasional online professional development opportunities. Please sign up for our newsletter to keep up to date on our current programming.
