Are you interested in Architecture, Construction, or Engineering?
Check out the ACE Mentor Program!
The ACE Mentor program is an after-school program for students who might be interested in architecture, construction, or engineering for buildings. This is a 16 week after-school program where the students will work on a group design project (this year designing tiny vacation rentals!) and learn directly from professionals. There will be additional hands-on activities, opportunities for office and site tours, and scholarship and internship opportunities.
A previous year over $20,000 in scholarships were awarded and 16 paid summer work experiences! This is a unique opportunity for the students because the program is run by industry partners, who the students are having direct contact with.
We will start with a Kick-Off Session:
Date and Time: Thursday, January 16, 3:30-5:30pm
Location: JATC-North, 9301 South Wights Fort Road, West Jordan, UT 84088
Sessions will continue each Thursday from the kick-off in January to May 1 at JATC-North, 3:30 - 5pm.
