Chaim is a sixteen year old yeshiva bochur, charming,
bright and committed to his Yiddishkeit. He has only
one problem -- he can't cope with the rigorous academic
learning program of the yeshiva.
Should Chaim simply be written off as one of the statistics
who just isn't going to make it?
The Jerusalem Institute for Applied Technical Training (ATT)
answers that question with a resounding "No!" With warmth and
acceptance ATT has created a vibrant alternative, a positive
and structured educational program which grants students the
opportunity to maximize their potential, in accordance with
their needs.
ATT's unique track opens up a world of self-sufficiency to
its students, granting them broad prospects for their future
as productive members of the community both in Yiddishkeit
and in mundane pursuits.
Administered and run by authentic bnei Torah and
established with the brochos of gedolei Yisroel,
ATT has developed a dynamic program with a healthy blend
of learning, work, character and confidence building.
In addition to their hours of limudei kodesh, the ATT
students receive the highest caliber hands-on training in
such fields as carpentry, plumbing and electrical work. Much
experience is gained by providing subsidized services to
Jerusalem's most needy households, thus practicing skills and
chesed at the same time.
Students are meticulously taught by professionals who offer
training and expertise in their respective fields while
additionally serving as role models and mentors. Graduates
receive a course completion diploma from ATT. Furthermore the
Institute accompanies its graduates out into the world,
helping them with employment guidance and assistance based on
the school's extensive network of professionals.
This well-balanced blend of Yiddishkeit and practical
life training succeeds in addressing the needs of Chaim and
his friends helping them become the well integrated working
Bnei Torah they so truly want to be.
ATT provides its students with a helping hand in more ways
than one, for now and for the future.
