A.C.E Academy & Industry Involvement Opportunities
The Architecture/Construction/Engineering (ACE) Academy is a high school level education program that integrates academia with technical education in construction related fields, identifying the relevance of one to the other and thereby improving student understanding and retention.
The AGC of Wisconsin are proud to support ten (10) academies across the state. High School graduates, earning a Certificate from the ACE Career Academy, are educated to pursue employment opportunities in the construction industry by exploring options through apprenticeship programs, at the technical college and/or university level.
