The ACE Mentor Program is free and open to any high school student who has the curiosity and drive to learn about a career in integrated design and construction industry. Online and in-person programming provides students with career exposure and professional development sessions in order to enhance their ACE experience and provide a full circle overview of the journey into a career.
Students will work with architects, engineers, and construction professionals on mock and real-life design challenges. Students will gain the confidence and skills necessary to pursue their professional and personal goals.
