1 year
A full-year journey through complete character development, with daily practice, weekly mentors, and real-life challenges.
At a glance
The flagship year: every foundational pillar, weekly mentors, the ACE Signature Kit, and challenges that show up in the community.
Every pillar, sixty days each, worked a fortnight at a time. The order is deliberate. Self-mastery comes first, because nothing else holds without it.
Days 1–60
Doing what is right even when it is hard. Four sub-traits, a fortnight each. The rest of the year is built on this.
Days 61–120
Understanding their own feelings and other people’s, and bouncing back when something goes wrong.
Days 121–180
Speaking clearly, listening properly, and trusting their own judgement in front of others.
Days 181–240
Taking initiative, working with others, and lifting the group. Leadership works best once teamwork is understood.
Days 241–300
Trust, courtesy, and disagreeing fairly. The foundation every relationship rests on.
Days 301–360
Curiosity, adaptability and grit: staying open, and trying again after a mistake.
Five short beats, small enough to finish on a school night.
Off the screen
One after every pillar. Each asks your child to plan it, do it, document it and reflect on it, out in the world rather than in the app. Some involve family, some the neighbourhood, some an audience. Every brief is matched to their class group.
The briefs themselves are part of the programme. Your progress partner takes you through the year, project by project, on the Day 0 call.
Want to see the actual projects for your child’s class?
A mentor will walk you through them, and help you pick the right starting point.
Fifty-two weeks of small-group sessions, each led by a mentor.
Transform is presented to children as a challenge worth finishing, so what they earn is visible. Rewards arrive through the year, not only at the end.
Families ready to spend a full year on every foundational character pillar. Pricing:
Because character does not move in six weeks. Each sub-trait gets a fortnight and each pillar sixty days, which is what it takes for a behaviour to become a habit and a habit to become identity. If a year is too much to start with, ACE Focus does one trait in 120 days.
A few minutes daily for the calendar, plus one 45–50 minute Elevate session each week. The six projects take real time, but they happen in the world: organising an event, running a drive, giving a speech.
On Day 0 your family is assigned a mentor and a progress partner, who runs an online call with you and your child to explain the year, set reminders and walk you both through the app.
The pillar changes every sixty days and the sub-trait every fortnight, so the work keeps turning over. Badges land after each pillar, and physical rewards arrive at milestones.
Join the Day 0 call and support the six projects. Several involve family or community. Your progress partner stays with you for the year.
Focus takes one trait for 120 days. Transform takes every character pillar across 360 days, with 24 sub-traits, six projects instead of four, the ACE Signature Kit, milestone rewards and merchandise. Focus is depth on one thing; Transform is the whole character.
ACE Transform is chosen and paid for inside the app. Leave your email if you would rather a mentor walked you through it first.
Plans open to founding families first.
