Many want to learn and receive smicha, but find it difficult to do so. Some are in places with no structured program, others have difficulty navigating the Shulchan Aruch and its commentaries, while others have difficulty committing to such an undertaking.

Machon Smicha utilizes a unique curriculum that was designed for precisely such students, and the program is becoming more and more popular. The one-of-a-kind initiative provides learners with step-by-step guidance through the smicha process, fusing authentic learning with modern technology.
