Student Success Initiative
Develop Leadership Skills/Establish Meaningful Connections/Gain Access to Opportunities

What is the Student Success Initiative?
The Student Success Initiative, exclusive to ACE participants, will assist students to develop their leadership skills, network with industry partners and provide access to career connections.

Why should you register for the Student Success Initiative?
As a registrant of this program, you will have access to the Talent Community housed within the ACE Online Portal. The use of the Talent Community is a complimentary service provided for all ACE stakeholders.

Donors registered to participate in the Student Success Initiative will have access to the Talent Community where they can develop a profile, establish meaningful connections with top talent and post job openings with the assistance of the Student Success Manager.

Students registered for the Student Success Initiative will have access to the Talent Community where they can leverage valuable personal development and employment opportunities, as well as keep up-to-date on relevant networking platforms with industry partners. The Student Success Manager will match students with career connections that pertain to their interests while providing students with the one-on-one support they need to achieve their career goals.

ACE is devoted to supporting the development of future leaders nationwide. ACE students are highly entrepreneurial and ambitious, demonstrated by their passion for resolving economic, social and environmental issues through the projects and business ventures they operate in their communities. Donor companies can reap the benefits of hiring a group of dedicated employees who have already attained valuable skills as a result of their involvement in ACE’s programs.

Students can register now by going to https://portal.acecanada.ca and clicking the Talent Community tab.

What are people saying about the Student Success Initiative?
“This past summer I completed a Store Management Internship with Walmart. It was an amazing experience where I gained valuable management experience, was trained on almost every job, improved many important skills, and made awesome contacts within the organization. Without the Student Success Initiative I would’ve never had this fantastic opportunity. I highly recommend anyone to participate in this great program. I personally guarantee you won’t be disappointed!”  - Chris Sloan, St. Lawrence College

“The Student Success Initiative proves that ACE goes the extra mile by providing students with incredible career opportunities. This initiative has helped me connect with donor company recruiters and interview with some of the top companies in Canada!”
- Megan Annand, Okanagan College   

“Through the ACE Student Success Initiative, I was presented with the opportunity to work directly with a reputable consultant who has years of experience with high profile clients. Because of this, I was able to learn and work on a much higher level rather than starting out with the common administrative and paperwork that most people normally go through for working experience at my age. More importantly, I have gained a valuable contact that will help accelerate my career! And this is all possible thanks to the ACE Student Success Initiative!” - Jonathan Truong, Ryerson University
