Transforming Jewish Education Worldwide:
The ShalomLearning Story

13 July 2025 / 17 Tammuz 5785

We thank Global Jewry for featuring our work.  ShalomLearning, founded by Devin Schain, is revolutionizing Jewish education through a tech-driven, accessible platform serving over 20,000 students in 11 countries. Built to meet the evolving needs of modern Jewish families, the program offers engaging content, teacher training, and community-building tools. Aligned with Global Jewry’s mission, ShalomLearning empowers Jewish continuity across borders, combining innovation with deep-rooted values in a time of rising challenges.

In an era where Jewish communities face unprecedented challenges, from rising antisemitism to evolving educational needs, ShalomLearning works steadily to innovate and strengthen Jewish education worldwide. Founded by entrepreneur Devin Schain, our organization connects Jewish communities through meaningful technology and shared purpose.

The alignment between ShalomLearning’s mission and Global Jewry’s vision is clear. Both organizations recognize that Jewish continuity depends on thoughtful approaches to education, community building, and cultural preservation. In our interconnected world, Global Jewry’s platform provides an important network for initiatives like ShalomLearning that strengthen Jewish identity across borders.

Devin’s journey began with a personal challenge that many Jewish families recognize: balancing rigorous academic schedules with meaningful Jewish education. In 2011, inspired by his family’s struggle to integrate Hebrew school with their busy lives, Schain launched ShalomLearning as an online Jewish educational platform. What started as a solution for one family has grown into a global network, now serving over 200 synagogues and reaching more than 20,000 students across 11 countries.

ShalomLearning’s approach rests on three foundational pillars: a robust learning management system, exceptional educational content, and comprehensive teacher training. This holistic approach ensures that Jewish education is accessible, engaging, and adaptable to modern family life. The platform has proven valuable during times of crisis, providing continuity when traditional education models faced disruption.

Schain’s commitment extends beyond technology. His recent completion of the 2024 Marine Corps Marathon running with an Israeli soldier—dedicated to combating antisemitism, remembering October 7, 2023, and raising funds for ShalomLearning—reflects the personal dedication that drives this mission. As a University of Pennsylvania graduate, Sigma Alpha Mu member, Wexner Heritage Fellow, and active YPO member, Schain brings both entrepreneurial expertise and deep Jewish commitment to his work.

At this pivotal moment for Jewish communities worldwide, ShalomLearning works to address contemporary challenges while preserving timeless values. We believe that accessible, quality Jewish education can help build resilient communities prepared for the future.

Ready to explore collaboration opportunities? We invite you to connect with us to learn more about ShalomLearning’s impact and discuss how we can work together to strengthen Jewish education and community worldwide.

Shavua tov, wishing for the safety of all those in Israel and may this be the week the hostages return home,

Devin Schain
