Australian Certificate of Education
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Australian Certificate of Education (ACE) is a new name proposed by the Australian state and territory education ministers to describe the various versions of the Senior Secondary Certificate of Education overseen by the Australian Qualifications Framework. This name is proposed primarily for overseas marketing purposes.
Controversially, the acronym "ACE" is already used for two other educational purposes in Australia - Adult and Community Education and Advanced Christian Education.
