HRT3M
World Religions and Belief Traditions (HRT3M) explores how Rabbinic Judaism, Christianity and Islam expanded and evolved during the Middle Ages.
This course fulfills your requirement of taking a "Group 1" credit. There are no prerequisites.
HRT3M is a year course beginning in October.
We meet twice a week for 25 weeks, with all Jewish and civil holidays off.
Although we'd like you to start in October, you can join the course up until the end of November.
There are homework assignments that drop in Google Classroom at the beginning of each month that are due at the end of the month. Select one (or two, depending on the month) that interests you most.
Beginning in 2026–2027, every Ontario course must include a written final evaluation completed during the designated exam period. Ours is Culminating Day, and it is built entirely around a topic you choose.

Culminating Day takes place in June, during the designated exam period.

In this course, we’ll address these question and so many more about how our tradition developed alongside our sibling religions.
