Military Evaluations

  • Since 1945, ACE has provided a critical link between the U. S. Department of Defense and higher education and in this role helps our nation’s military members and veterans gain access to higher education. ACE reviews military training (courses) and experiences (occupations) with the goal of awarding equivalent college credits for those experiences. The Military Guide has over 18,000 exhibits (15,000 courses/3,200 occupations) dating back to 1954.

    The ACE evaluation process is founded on high quality standards of educational practice, including rigorous reviews by faculty evaluators. ACE conducts a site visit to evaluate military training and facilitate the evaluators’ analysis in determining the appropriate credit recommendations.

  • ACE Faculty Evaluators

    ACE review teams embrace the philosophy that what an individual learns is more important than when, where, and how the individual learned it. An ACE evaluation is a rigorous, hands-on process conducted by a team of teaching faculty from relevant academic disciplines, representing a diversity of colleges and universities.
