The Shema Yisrael Torah Network is a group of (mainly English) websites dedicated to spreading Jewish thought, halakha (Jewish law) and other material through the World Wide Web, email and written material.

Shema Yisrael offers distance-learning classes in a variety of topics in halakha ranging from introductory level classes to advanced classes to aid in preparation for semicha examinations. Classes include kashrut, general halakha according to the Shulchan Aruch, Shabbos, Pesach, and Issur v'Heter. The more advanced classes can lead to semicha.

Shema Yisrael's rabbis can be found in many institutions. For example, Rav Dovid Bendory is a member of the Rabbinical Council of America and the Union of Orthodox Rabbis. Other rabbis serve as kashrut administrators for the Orthodox Union, in pulpits, or as well-educated members of their synagogues.
