Founded in 1996, it was the first independent rabbinical school located on the [[West Coast of the United States|U.S. West Coast]]. It ordained its first class in 1999.
 
Located in [[Los Angeles]], it has ordained about 100 rabbis, about half of them women. The school attracts an international student body, with students from [[Australia]], [[Brazil]], [[Canada]], [[France]], [[Israel]], [[Mexico]], [[Uganda]], and the [[United Kingdom]], as well as from every region of the [[United States]]. Upon ordination, Ziegler rabbis serve in every sector of the United States and Israel. Ziegler rabbis are automatically admitted to the international [[Rabbinical Assembly]].
