2013 ACE Awards Banquet

On March 15th we held our annual ACE Awards Banquet at the California Automobile Museum where we announced project winners and gave away student scholarships. The project awards were given as follows...Best Construction: Team Yuba City; Best Design: Team Galt; Best Presentation: Team Oak Ridge; Best Overall: Team Granite Bay!

In addition, twelve scholarships were awarded, allowing the ACE Mentor Program of Greater Sacramento to give away upwards of $12,000 to kids in pursuit of careers in architecture, construction, and engineering. The success of our program would not be possible without our sponsors...

About Us

ACE is a collaborative effort to bring the multifaceted construction industry, educational institutions and local community together to expose high school students to the world of architecture, construction, engineering and the building trades.

The ultimate goal is two-fold. One is to provide students with various pathways for life after high school and help students find what sparks their interest, but also to excite and motivate students pursue careers in the construction/design industry.

ACE Mentor Sacramento started as a small pilot program in 2007. This past year, we are proud to have welcomed over 120 students, from 11 high schools who have been mentored by over 60 mentors representing over 35 companies around our region.

ACEs programs rely upon committed, energetic mentor & volunteer participation. By acting as professional role models, trusted friends and career advisors, mentors make a significant contribution to their communities, while helping to develop the professionals who will lead tomorrows building industry. In addition, mentoring presents a variety of networking opportunities, as well as chances to sharpen individual presentation and other professional skills.

Mentors & volunteers are generally members of a local community in which an ACE affiliate is located. They should also be dedicated industry participants who are passionate about what they do and want to share their enthusiasm with the workforce of the future. In addition, they must be able to establish rapport with students. While this is often easiest for young mentors, mentors of all ages have been very successful. Finally, mentors should be team players willing to dedicate up to 30 hours of their time during the school year.
