The SLBC International Conference (Songleader Boot Camp), provides powerful Jewish leadership training for clergy, Jewish educators, religious and day school teachers, family engagement and early childhood specialists, teen leaders, Jewish camping staff, veteran and new songleaders, and volunteer/lay leaders. Led by nationally renowned Jewish thought leaders, educators, and music artists, SLBC teaches participants specific skills and strategies to inspire transformative change in their Jewish communities. At SLBC, education and inspiration are grounded in strategic planning.

SLBC programs include the SLBC International Conference and SLBC Day of Leadership regional conferences, individual coaching, and leadership training seminars for synagogues, synagogue board of directors, and Jewish conferences.

The SLBC International Conference, held every February over President’s Day weekend, features a wide range of dynamic courses that explore a holistic approach to powerful and effective leadership in the Jewish world. The conference experience is soaked in inspirational Jewish music and communal singing. Participants do not need to sing or play an instrument to fully experience ALL that SLBC has to offer.
