ACE Mentor Omaha:
ACE Mentor Omaha is one of seventy-seven affiliates of the national ACE Mentor organization. Our mission, nationally and locally, is to engage, excite and enlighten high school students to pursue careers in architecture, construction and engineering through mentoring and to support their continued advancement in the industry. Further, we strive to increase diversity in ACE professions in the Omaha community.
ACE MENTOR Omaha is beginning our seventh year. This coming school year we are anticipating the involvement of over 350 students who will be working with over 60 mentors in eleven metro area high schools. Last school year 70% of ACE MENTOR Omaha students came from underrepresented communities in Omaha.
Our mentoring and internship programs expose students to a broad spectrum of opportunities in design and construction careers including the importance of marketing and communications as a part of the industry.
Our presentation will provide additional information to further introduce ACE MENTOR and explain opportunities for participation through a PR committee or through mentoring involvement.
