afternoons, allowing students to pursue a religious education with a college degree simultaneously. In the US, the Modern Orthodox Stern College for Women (Yeshiva University) combines Torah and University studies, as at Bar-Ilan; the Haredi Lander College for Women similarly. Stern graduates often pursue Torah topics at the Masters level, through the Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies. In recent years some midrashot offer specialized programs in Halacha, comprising Talmud-intensive source study, with certifying examinations on the relevant sections of codified law in the Shulchan Aruch. Nishmat trains women as Yoatzot Halacha, advisors in the laws of Family purity; Lindenbaum, through a joint program, prepares women as to'anot, advocates in religious courts for matters relating to divorce. Three programs mirror the Rabbinate’s ordination requirement for men: Ein Hanetziv trains students as "Teachers of Halacha", Lindenbaum in "Halachik leadership" and Matan as "Halachik Respondents". Yeshiva University offers women graduate-students a Master's program in advanced Talmud and Halacha. Other institutions As above, the term Midrasha is sometimes used for pluralistic, as opposed to orthodox, institutions for Torah study. These are usually structured around continuing / adult education, and accept both men and women. Examples in Israel are the Ein Prat Midrasha and the Midrasha at the Oranim Academic College; elsewhere, the Melton School's Midrasha in Cape Town. Other non-orthodox programs for women (usually egalitarian) include those at "Pardes", which offers various learning formats worldwide, and Mechon Hadar a Conservative-aligned Bet Midrash in New York. (Oranim, in partnership with the Shalom Hartman Institute, in fact offers a pluralistic ordination to both men and women.) Within the Orthodox community, continuing-education programs for women, similar to these, are also offered, for example by Matan and Emunah, while Midreshet Afikim is a program for high-school students. The LSJS Women's Midrasha programme similarly provides regular text-based classes; Mizrachi's "Lapidot" program comprises weekly training in Mishna, Gemara and Halacha, and Machshava. Many diaspora synagogues host a "campus midrasha" or suchlike, offering scheduled daily classes on various topics; many also host a "Community Kollel", which has a corresponding function, and offers adult education to both men and women (usually separately). In the United States, the term Midrasha is also used for programs where high school students can continue their Jewish education post bar / bat mitzvah. In Israel, the term is used also in wider contexts. Midreshet Ben-Gurion - also known as Midreshet Sde Boker - is an
