— The National Association for Career and Technical Education and its Board of Directors announced ACE Electric, Inc. as an ACTE Business-Education Partnership Award winner, a statement from ACE said. The Business-Education Partnership Award celebrates the contributions and achievements of schools and businesses that aid in the development and maintenance of partnerships supporting high-quality career and technical education.
The ACE Electric and Lowndes High School work-based learning partnership was designed to address a critical labor shortage faced by ACE Electric within the electrical trade. This labor shortage was exacerbated by the average employee age steadily increasing over the last decade with many retirements, and a lack of student awareness and recruiting in the electrical contracting trade.
ACE Electric, Inc. will be recognized alongside other national ACTE award winners Nov. 29 at the annual ACTE Awards Gala in Phoenix, Arizona. ACE has offices in Valdosta, Statesboro, Macon, Atlanta, Jackson, Tenn., Sanford, N.C., and Plain City, Ohio.
