AJEEC’s gap year programs have different tracks, each with a different emphasis: “Taliyah” (“Pioneering”) – focused on volunteering in the community with a gender lens; “Sabeel Leadership Institute” – focused on developing youth leadership; “Arab-Jewish Gap Year” – a joint program for Arab and Jewish youth, the latter made up of Scouts national service participants; and “BridgeTech” – focusing on preparation for studies and employment in STEM fields. This year, for the first time, another gap year was opened called, “Alrazi”, which focuses on training for the study of health professions.
During the activity year, the participants receive a monthly stipend, full funding of the preparatory studies for the University Entrance exam, and, at the end of it, they are eligible to receive a scholarship for higher education.
