Architecture Construction Engineering Students (ACES) is a secondary through postsecondary education program designed to train a new generation of workers who reflect the talents and diversity found in today’s American communities. ACES students can earn a high school diploma, skills certificates and associate degrees to jumpstart STEAM careers in architecture, engineering, energy, and construction.

ACES creates academic pathways, regardless of participants’ GPAs and socio-economic challenges, by employing a collaborative, proactive case-management approach that engages high school principals and teachers, community college faculty and administrators, charter school executive directors and counselors. The program has helped hundreds of high school students earn industry credentials/skills certificates.
