There are also the 4 original branches: Udasi; Nirnala, SewaPanthi, and Khalsa.

Thanks veer ji, noted all those above.

By Khalsa I assume you mean the SGPC maryada? (normal maryada)

No, Khalsa as in: 

ਜਬ ਲਗ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਰਹੇ ਨਿਆਰਾ ॥

jab lag khhalasa rehae niara

While the Khalsa stays true,

ਤਬ ਲਗ ਤੇਜ ਕੀਉ ਮੈਂ ਸਾਰਾ ॥

thab lag thaej keeo main sara

I will offer my full support

ਜਬ ਇਹ ਗਹੈ ਬਿਪਰਨ ਕੀ ਰੀਤ ॥j

ab eih gehai biparan kee reeth

When they follow the ways of others,

ਮੈਂ ਨ ਕਰੋਂ ਇਨ ਕੀ ਪ੝ਰਤੀਤ ॥

main n karon ein kee pratheeth

I will withdraw my assistance from them.

I'm no expert in Jatha politics but surely if someone wants an education from them, they'll provide it? obviously providing they can prove they're atleast sejhdhari.

I ask as I'm tempted to spend some time learning from the Nihangs at Hazoor Sahib.

Most Jathas will provide reasonable education regardless of your own views. Some branches of these Jathas would teach Non-Sikhs if they wanted to learn.

Akhand Kirtani Jatha (AKJ)

https://akj.org/

AKJ differs from mainstream Sikhism in their interpretation of one of The Five Ks of Sikhism: instead of accepting the kes or "uncut hair", they interpret the command as referring to keski, a small turban, which they maintain must be worn by Sikhs of either sex. Kes is given a higher requirement.

They are against any forms of meat, including Jhatka.

This is a topic on gurmatbibek.com which is very much an AKJ forum. http://gurmatbibek.com/forum/read.php?3,1963

As mentioned in the name of the Jatha, they elaborate more on their Kirtan. Here are a few examples of their kirtan:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-B0Y4Aav_KE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rt6E4OyRl0

(I am going to keep AKJ short because their maryada and facts are really not hard to find)

https://vidhia.com/Bhai Randheer Singh Ji/Autobiography-Bhai-Sahib-Randhir-Singh-Ji.pdf

https://vidhia.com/Bhai Randheer Singh Ji/

Please use these links they tell you a lot of what Bhai Randhir Singh said. 

All other Jathabandi's

Other jathabandi's are basically just a group of sikhs. For example, dhadi jatha. They don't have a whole new jatha with a maryada do they? Jatha simply means a group/parade. 

And a jatha inside a jatha, for example a kirtani group that are akhand kirtani's, they are a smaller jatha that don't believe in anything different, just a little group.

Joining a Puratan Samprada / Jatha

I am no expert on these type of stuff but here are my 20 cents:

To join a Samprada of any sort, you need to follow their rehit top to bottom. You are still a Sikh just different beliefs.

Now to actually be in the Jatha fully, you need to take amrit from that specified Jatha.

Let's say you wanted to become a Nihang, you will need to ask the current Jathedar (they have lots of headquarters) and ask him questions.

Same with taksali most likely. Otherwise you can just take amrit from that Jatha and follow what they say. Remember one thing though, you are to be following your Guru, don't be a sheep and follow the Jatha just for the sake of it.

Now AKJ is fairly easy too, just follow the maryada and the amrit from them.
