Summer Camps (Affiliate Information)

Summer is an ideal time for ACE students to explore additional career pathways and deepen their understanding of the industry. One way to support this exploration is by connecting students with summer camps and experiential learning opportunities. The information below provides details about each available program.

Affiliates may choose to offer scholarships to help offset camp costs, but financial assistance is not required. Even without funding support, affiliates and mentors can still promote these opportunities by sharing the provided flyers or directing students to the camp information link. Students may also register/apply for camps independently.
