Sofrut 2 is coming up to taking the Vaad exam,* and doing all kinds of marvellous things with mezuzot, Megillot, and Torah repair. Hooray for Sofrut 2!
Sofrut 1 has almost finished its first cast through the halakha, and then it will move up a level and start looking at the complicated bits and the background stuff. Yay and whoo for Sofrut 1.
As a sort of preliminary sniffer, who here would be interested in learning sofrut, practical and theoretical, one evening a week? Class level and goals negotiable, but basically with an eye towards Vaad certification (where biologically and philosophically viable, anyway) and being able to write and repair sifrei kodesh.
I'm thinking about starting in the new academic year, so as to fit in with certain rabbinical students who're doing their year in Israel just now. Really depends who's interested.
Oh, yeah, and you need to be able to get to New York, on account of that being where I am :)
Anyway, if you think that sounds worthy of consideration, bung in a comment, or drop me a line jen@geniza.net. Don't worry that your Hebrew or your calligraphy or anything else isn't good enough - we can do something about that. You'd be surprised.
* the Vaad Mishmeret Stam in Brooklyn - the real deal when it comes to sofrut certification.
