ACE Mentor Program of New Hampshire is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3), "free after school program" where high school students in the New Hampshire area can benefit from a nationwide program designed to introduce them to the wide range of career opportunities open to young people in architecture, construction, engineering, and related areas of the building design and construction industry.
Students meet on a weekly basis during the school year (typically October thru April/May) called "Sessions" where student teams work directly with professionals from leading area firms, who volunteer their time to mentor the teams as they design hypothetical projects with real-world context in the building design and construction industry.
For students, it’s a unique chance to discover and develop new skills, solidify future goals, and get on track toward exciting, rewarding careers. In addition, many students form positive relationships with industry professionals who can provide important references for obtaining college admissions, scholarships, internships, and full-time employment.
