The Shriners International Education Foundation (SIEF) is vital to the future, success and strength of our fraternity, and of members of the entire Masonic family, including both men and women from appendant allied and affiliated bodies. SIEF improves lives by promoting, supporting and fostering education, training, study, research, and leadership skills.
Our Noble Academy Membership & Marketing Conference and Masters Class offers multiple Learning Paths and consists of an annual conference and four virtual events that take place throughout the year.
We never want you to miss an SIEF learning opportunity! If you were unable to attend a past virtual event, or simply want a refresher, just look below for links to past sessions.
