Intensive courses in Hebrew “as it is spoken in Israel” are being conducted here under the joint auspices of the World Zionist Organization and Histadrut Ivrit, it was announced today by the Department of Culture and Education of the WZO. The courses are restricted to persons who plan to work in Israel or settle there permanently.
The entire course is of nine months’ duration. Conversational Hebrew is stressed and the teaching methods are similar to those employed at the Ulpanim, intensive special courses given for immigrants in Israel. Many of the initial registrants are members of PATWA-Professional and Technical Workers Aliyah–who are preparing for careers in Israel, the announcement said.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
