Education and Youth Corps - Education and Youth Training Base

Education and Youth Training Base

The Education and youth training base, or by its name Sha'arei Avraham (Abraham's gates) was built near the Re'em Junction in the Lachish Valley near Kiryat Mal'akhi.

Many of the soldiers in various roles in the Education Corps get their training in the Youth Education Training Base.

Among these roles:

  1. Mashakit Hod מש"קית הו"ד - teaching and command NCO
  2. Madan Merhav and Basis מד"ן מרחב ובסיס - a youth guide in the base and region
  3. Mashakit Hinukh מש"קית חינוך - education NCO
  4. Mashakit Aliya מש"קית עלייה - immigration NCO
  5. Military ensemble
  6. Museum guides
  • The teacher-soldiers who are also a part of the Education Corps don't get their training in the Youth Education Training Base, but in a civic seminary called Ramot Shapira, which is in moshav Beit Meir, next to Jerusalem. this is a result of the "lending agreement" with the Education Minister of Israel.

Famous quotes containing the words education, youth, training and/or base:

    “Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    “We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “It’s [motherhood] the biggest on-the-job- training program in existence today.”
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    “Were I as base as is the lowly plain,
    And you, my Love, as high as heaven above,
    Yet should the thoughts of me, your humble swain,
    Ascend to heaven in honour of my love.”
    —Joshua Sylvester (1561–1618)
