How do I register to participate in this program for the upcoming school year?

First, make sure you qualify to participate and that you agree to the requirements.  The program is designed for elementary educators in grades K - 6 who will ensure at least 10 of the 22 ACE lessons are taught to their students during the school year. (For details on program implementation, review the Teacher Implementation Guidelines. View now.) 

Next, you must be a member of CAP in order to register to participate in the ACE program. (If you are not currently a member, click here for CAP AEM membership information and to join online. Please note that as a new Aerospace Education Member of CAP, you will be able to request other free K-12 aerospace/STEM education materials, but these are not the ACE program materials.)  In the event your school wishes to become an entire ACE School (all of the teachers at your school wish to participate), please send an email prior to joining as an AEM to ace@capnhq.gov for further information on how to join using a school check.

Educators who wish to participate in the ACE program should plan to register beginning August 1 each year using the online registration link in eServices. (Go to Aerospace Education; then, to ACE Registration.)  (If you are a member of CAP and have never set up your eServices account, go to www.capnhq.gov and click the "first time user" link.) 

 When you register for ACE, make sure you check the correct category for you - and that determines if you will enter number of student participants or someone else will at your school. This is an important aspect of registering.  

If you have questions, please send an email to ace@capnhq.gov.
