Achieving Ace

We are helping teens take an active role in building their future

Ace certification is the highest level a participant can achieve at First Tee – Lehigh Valley & Berks. Ace focuses on personal planning and will reinforce skills such as self-management, goal setting, self-coaching, interpersonal communication, and resilience that were applied in earlier levels of the program.

In this program, participants will: 

• Integrate their knowledge & skills into planning for their future 
• Invest in their community 
• Explore who they are and where they want to go next 
• Investigate future paths (education & career) 
• Craft their goals & create a game-plan 
• Build kickstart assets for their next step

Eligibility

• Complete advanced instruction and be a minimum of 14 years old
• Meet with our coaches and program director to share your goals and intentions
• This is a 2-year process and requires diligence, commitment and time
• Participants must take one-to-two years to complete all four projects
• Must be able to work in small groups and independently
• Enrollment in the Ace program requires an application and recommendation from a First Tee coach. 

Ace Projects

Through a series of four hands-on projects, participants are guided to explore who they are and what paths could be possible, create goals and an action plan, and build real-world assets to kickstart their next step. Ace participants begin with many questions and uncertainties and leave with confidence, greater perspective and vision for their next step.
