Conventions

Regional Conventions

Our regional conventions provide students opportunities to develop leadership skills through A.C.E. Student Conventions.

 

The journey to the premier event of the year, International Student Convention (ISC), begins at Regional Student Convention (RSC). Students learn dedication, preparation, time management, and how to compete. These Christian competitions train students to develop skills and attitudes that will prepare them for life!

                            International Conventions

International Student Convention (ISC) is a premier event that is the highlight of the school year for hundreds of schools and homeschools using the A.C.E. School of Tomorrow program.

 

Approximately 4,000 young people worldwide qualify in regional conventions to compete in the categories of music, oratory, art, athletics, academics, and numerous aspects of service.  With over 140 Christian competitions for students, everyone can find an area that interests them!

 

You will learn about dedication, patience, striving for excellence and commitment, and will have the opportunity to compete with others from around the world. View the Convention Guidelines to learn more about the competitions.

What happens at evening Rallies?

First, the night starts with pre rally games, contests, and fun activities. Then you will be called to analyze your spiritual life while listening to the guest speaker of the night. The evening rallies are highlighted with inspirational messages that will challenge you to yield fully to a lifetime of serving God. ISC rallies will encourage you to become a WORLD CHANGER!

​

What are the International Booths?

The booths are a great way to meet with A.C.E. staff and learn more about ACEM programs such as BLESS, Service Adventure, Educational Assistance, and ACBI. You will receive helpful information, updates on the programs, gifts, stamps for your passport, flyers, and brochures. You can even meet the mascots and take pictures at the multiple photo booths!
