Staff Adat Noar Weekends            Bureau weekend retreats are great opportunities to improve your peer leadership skills, learn by working closely with Senior Staff members, and put what you learn and discuss at Sunday sessions into action.  These are by invitation only.  Attendance and participation during Sunday sessions is taken into consideration.  Before staffing a weekend retreat, TALITniks must take a TALIT Staff Training minicourse.

Advanced Camp Leadership*       The Roslyn and Joe Baim Advanced Camp Leadership (ACL) is for those TALIT members who want the opportunity to develop their skills as a leader and camp counselor in great depth.  ACL is seven additional Sunday meetings.  Attendance at six out of seven guarantees participants the opportunity to staff Community Shabbaton weekends at camp.
