Chai Center Offers Courses On Integrity

The Chai Center in Dix Hills will present Living with Integrity: Navigating Everyday Ethical Dilemmas, a new six-session Winter 2013 course that begins during the last week of January and CLE accredited.

Rabbi Avraham Lehr, will conduct the six course sessions on Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m. starting January 29, and Wednesdays at 12 p.m. starting January 30. Both course offerings are held at the The Chai Center, located at 501 Vanderbilt Parkway.

“There’s a lot of talk about ethics for government and big corporations, but almost every day we confront complex ethical decisions in our own relationships,” said Rabbi Lehr. “From Nanny cams to our responsibilities to our parents, Living with Integrity will provide a framework for making balanced decisions for ourselves and for the people we care about.”

Packed with real-life scenarios, Living with Integrity challenges students to articulate their own opinions, while providing practical Talmudic wisdom to help them navigate through life’s inevitable ethical challenges. This course will not only provide the tools to make appropriate decisions, it will also enhance their interaction with family and friends.

Living with Integrity is designed to appeal to people at all levels of Jewish knowledge, including those without any prior experience or background in Jewish learning. All of The Chai Center’s courses are open to the public, and attendees need not be affiliated with a particular synagogue, temple, or other house of worship.

Living with Integrity has been approved to offer Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits. Lawyers who take the six-session course will earn 9 (7.5 E) CLE credits. The course has also been approved for CLE credits in 30 other states. Additionally, all attendees can earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for participating in the course.
