Adult Community Education
Adult Community Education (ACE) has a long and proud history in Queensland and has played an important role in creating pathways for skilling Queenslanders.

The 2008 Ministerial declaration on ACE [PDF 1.5MB] has been endorsed by the Ministerial Council for Vocational and Technical Education. The declaration provides a national policy framework which supports a collaborative approach to ACE, particularly in relation to its role in the provision of vocationally focused education and training and fostering the development of skills required for individuals to participate fully in their communities and the economy.
