ACE’s students in the 2018-2019 program (Greater Philadelphia affiliate) completed surveys, both before and after participating in the program, that assessed their overall goals and interests in the program, professional skills, abilities, confidence in their relationships with mentors, interests in post-secondary plans, and their knowledge about specific A|C|E fields and skills.
Post-program results demonstrate ACE students improved significantly in levels of interests and skills. For 21st-century work and life skills such as problem solving, leadership, and ability to work with a diverse group, students showed dramatic improvements as a result of the ACE experience.
