Students
Are you a high school junior or senior interested in learning more about careers in architecture, construction, or engineering? ACE may be for you! The ACE Mentor Program of Oregon is a free after-school program that runs from January to May. Seniors interested in these career paths are eligible to apply for ACE scholarships to a four-year university, community college or apprenticeship training program. 
​
Our program starts in January 2022. 
​​Students will be assigned to a team:

• Tuesday and Thursday teams will meet from 5:00-6:30pm (virtual/hybrid)*
• Wednesday teams will meet 6:00-7:30 pm (virtual)

 ​*The majority of sessions will be virtual. Teams that meet on Tuesdays or Thursdays may hold some small-team sessions in person, if COVID-19 conditions permit.  In-person sessions, if feasible, may last up to two hours. All teams will be expected to follow CDC and Multnomah County guidelines around gatherings.
