About the program

MTA offers a year of intense study in top learning institutions all while remaining in the Bnei Akiva framework. With over 30 years of experience, MTA has produced generations of leadership for Bnei Akiva, and is the perfect way to build one’s future in Torah learning and Israel.


Outside of yeshiva and midrasha, you will travel the length and the breadth of Israel on seminars, Shabbatonim and tiyulim as well as experience kibbutz and go on a life-changing trip to Poland. From learning about Israeli society to volunteering where Israel needs you most, MTA brings Torah study and a passion for Israel into one holistic programme.


Your year with MTA also places focus on leadership, and through volunteering, touring and learning from first-class educators, you’ll gain the skills and knowledge to make a difference to the community.


You’ll be more independent than you’ve ever been in your life, yet you can relax knowing that your needs are being looked after.


Program components

Leadership Seminars

Bnei Akiva believes in the importance of developing Jewish leadership around the world. Our Hachshara seminars aim to help you to return to your communities ready to take active leadership roles as madrichim in Bnei Akiva, as activists in the Jewish student world and as leaders within the Jewish community. You’ll be introduced to leaders of the past, be inspired by leaders of today, and gain practical skills to help you be the leaders of the future.

The experience was truely unforgettable

Aardvark Israel has helped shape and strengthen my Jewish and Israeli Identity.

I was able to live like a local and experience the ins and outs of Israeli culture with so many unique experiences.

The diversity of the programming allowed me to experience it all the tiyulim, the classes, the travelling and of course the Shabbatons.

My time with birthright was nothing short of incredible, it's curated to help create a sense of closeness to your group, our people and our land. The memories, feelings and connections I was able to forge with the help of birthright have been life changing.
