ACE Mentor Program
Opportunities in the Architecture, Construction, Engineering Industry
E
MCOR companies are increasingly discovering the rewards that accrue to those who participate in ACE (Architecture, Construction, Engineering). ACE is a nationwide program designed to get high school students excited about the opportunities and benefits available to them through the construction industry.
Dynalectric Company of San Francisco is in its third year of ACE involvement. This year, six of the firm's people are mentoring two ACE teams, one in San Francisco and one in San Jose. The teams, which can have up to 30 students each, meet every other week for about two hours. During the meetings, the groups visit jobsites and apprentice training facilities, tour company offices and work on "real-life" projects of the sort construction industry professionals engage in everyday.
In addition to providing mentors, Dynalectric SF contributes to the local chapter's scholarship fund and provides financial support for the end-of-year scholarship awards luncheon. This summer, the company also opened up two internships for promising ACE students.
