Following is a listing of rabbinical schools, organized by denomination.For general discussion of Rabbinic ordination, see Semikhah #Concept and Rabbi #Ordination.For discussion of the differing emphases between denominations, see Yeshiva #Curriculum. The latter, in overview:Orthodox Semikha centers, principally, on the study of Talmud-based halacha (Jewish law);while in other programs, the emphasis may shift to "the other functions of a modern rabbi such as preaching, counselling, and pastoral work.”Conservative Yeshivot occupy a position midway, in that their training places (significantly) more emphasis on Halakha and Talmud than other non-Orthodox programs.
