Other shorter Mesorah classes may be used for Miles as well. A 30-40 min class will earn 50 Miles.

During the class, please mute your audio, but leave your video on- we want to see you! After each class, a short quiz will be given to ensure participation and to get your feedback. These are required by Olami.
1-1/Small Classes
At least 200 of the 1000 miles must come from 1-1 or small group learning with the Mesorah staff- Motti, Ashley, Rabbi or Esther Lewis. Each 45 minute session will earn 100 Miles. They will reach out to schedule a session.
Trips
After earning 1,000 Mesorah Miles, you are eligible for your free trip. Mesorah Trip options can be found here, and you will need to apply and be accepted to the trip. The stipend covers the ground costs for the trip, up to $300, but not the travel cost of getting to the destination. However..
- For Domestic Trips (eg LA, Miami) there is a separate travel subsidy that can cover your travel costs.
- For certain international trips, the cost of the trip is just the ticket. In this case, you can redeem your Mesorah Miles for $300 towards the cost of travel.
Mesorah Miles are redeemable for up to 12 months from when you complete the program.
