International Humanitarian and Pedagogical Institute “Beit-Chana”
Hi, let's get acquainted!
Since 1995, the only higher education institution in Ukraine that trains teachers, educators, and psychologists prepared to work, among other settings, in educational institutions with instruction in the Hebrew language, as well as the history and traditions of the Jewish people, has been the Private Institution “Institution of Higher Education ‘International Humanitarian and Pedagogical Institute ‘Beit-Hana’.”
Recognizing the special state-building role of higher education institutions in training future professionals capable of implementing modern educational policy, the Institute strives to remain competitive within the European educational space. It operates democratically on the principles of humanism, justice, and freedom, and fosters the development of individuals in the spirit of respect for and commitment to the cultural heritage of the Ukrainian and Jewish peoples, who live and interact side by side in Ukraine and beyond.
The Institute collaborates with leading higher education institutions in Ukraine and maintains joint educational projects with Israeli universities. This undoubtedly contributes to strengthening productive international cooperation, and therefore the Institute’s educational programs are also in demand among international students.
Over 29 years of operation, more than 850 preschool educators, primary school teachers, and psychologists have been trained at the International Humanitarian and Pedagogical Institute “Beit-Hana.” Its graduates are successfully working within the educational systems of Ukraine, Europe, the United States, and Israel.
Since the early stages of hostilities in Ukraine, the International Humanitarian and Pedagogical Institute “Beit-Hana” has joined the charitable activities of the Federation of Jewish Communities of Ukraine. Assistance with the evacuation of civilians from combat zones, distribution of humanitarian aid to those in difficult circumstances, provision of essential medicines, and delivery of emergency psychological support became priority tasks for a temporarily established unit of the Institute — a call center comprising the rector, faculty members, and staff.
United by the Federation’s slogan “Charity Brings Salvation,” we are proud that the International Humanitarian and Pedagogical Institute “Beit-Hana” is involved in providing humanitarian assistance to all those affected by the war in Ukraine.
We believe in Victory.
