The Department of the Army Acquisition Corps
Acquisition Career Experience Program
The mission of the Department of the Army Acquisition Corps (AAC) is to improve the management, quality, and professionalism of the Army's Acquisition and Technology Workforce. The ACC was established as a result of the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act established by Congress, and is made up of both military and civilian professionals. Civilian members of the AAC participate in a wide variety of acquisition career fields to include Acquisition Logistics; Business, Cost Estimating and Financial Management; Facilities Engineering; Industrial/Contract Property Management; Information Technology; Production, Quality and Manufacturing; Program Management; Purchasing; System Planning Research, Development and Engineering; and Test and Evaluation.
The AAC sponsors the Acquisition Career Experience (ACE) Program. The ACE Program is a two-year paid, academic/government summer employment program. The program is intended to recruit high potential full-time undergraduate sophomore and junior college students into the Army's civilian acquisition and technology workforce. Working during the summer, students are teamed with a mentor to collaborate on challenging projects and/or specific acquisition issues.
