ACE Mentor Program of Eastern Pennsylvania

Program Description: 

Founded in 2000, the ACE Mentor Program of Eastern Pennsylvania gives students from local high schools an exciting opportunity to learn more about potential careers in architecture, engineering and construction.

Under the mentorship of experienced professionals from leading building industry firms, students work in teams to pursue a range of informative and stimulating after-school activities, including field trips to “in-progress” construction sites, discussions with project managers, tours of professional offices and more. In addition, each team works on a project that addresses “real-life” situations and issues..

From November through May, the program meets every other week from 4:00 to 6:00 p. m. in the offices of the team's mentors. It’s a perfect way to explore the building industry’s rich and diverse career opportunities.
