====Seminaries unaffiliated with main denominations====
{{further|List of rabbinical schools#Non-denominational}}
There are several possibilities for receiving rabbinic ordination in addition to seminaries maintained by the large Jewish denominations; these are the [[Academy for Jewish Religion (New York)|Academy for Jewish Religion]] in New York City, [[Academy for Jewish Religion (California)|AJR in California]], [[Jewish Renewal#Ordination training|ALEPH Ordination Program, the Jewish Renewal Seminary]] online, [[Hebrew College]] in Boston, and [[Hebrew Seminary]] in [[Illinois]].
The structure and curricula here are largely as at other non-Orthodox yeshivot.

More recently established are several non-traditional, and nondenominational (also called "transdenominational" or "postdenominational") seminaries. These grant semicha with lesser requirements re time, and with a modified curriculum, generally focusing on leadership and pastoral roles. These are [[Jewish Spiritual Leaders Institute|JSLI]], [[Rabbinical Seminary International|RSI]], [[Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary|PRS]], and [[List of rabbinical schools#Non-denominational|Ateret Tzvi]].
The [[Mesifta Adath Wolkowisk|Wolkowisk Mesifta]] is aimed at community professionals with significant knowledge and experience, and provides a tailored curriculum to each candidate.
