Not a serious institution. If you apply to teach, they do not even have the decency to interview you directly. They want you to record your answers to 4 questions and you never get to see anyone. Very convenient. They do not have to take the time to have a conversation and expose themselves. But an interview should be an opportunity for both sides. Without that chance, it only shows that they are cowards and may even have alterior motives. They get to hear about the strategies you use to possibly use them for themselves. In other words, they do not have an intention to consider you in the first place, but you give them free training. Very shady behavior. It makes one wonder how they operate in other areas. - There is nothing fair, transparent, or respectful with asking candidates to speak to a recording device and with nobody to see and interact with.

I could not ethically go back to school and put my family in more debt after my masters degree but the total doctoral program at ACE was $24,000 with 0% financing. I graduated debt free with my doctorate. Serving as a graduate assistant gave me the cutting edge to apply for a job that I now serve as associate professor of education. The scholarly preparation, attention to detail and authentic relatable assignments, prepared me to be competitive in the job market after graduation. ACE was my #1 choice!

I completed my M.Ed through ACE and had a positive experience. As a working professional, it was important for me to find a quality online program that was doable while juggling work and family. The 5 week terms were fast paced but structured in a format that is reasonable and easy to manage as long as you're organized. I'm now enrolled in their doctorates program and look forward to embarking on the research path of education.
