How to become a rabbi
Confirm your jewish heritage or convert to judaism.
One of the most essential steps to becoming a rabbi is to confirm that you were born jewish through proof from your biological parents. You may already be involved in the synagogue and your jewish faith when you consider becoming a rabbi.
Individuals who become rabbis must already have lived a predominately jewish lifestyle for at least three years, where you are involved in your jewish community and have been close to your jewish faith. This is especially important for jews who have been secular or away from their faith for some time.
