‼️Important news ‼️

With regret we have to inform you that the Jewish Community of Berlin, which acquired last year our Rabbinical seminar, decided to terminate the contract of our COO Dr. Sandra Anusiewicz-Baer with immediate effect.

Sandra enjoys our trust and we will support her.

More information soon.
