I just completed the first course of my Master's degree program at ACE and I was thoroughly impressed.
Over the past four or five years I have started programs at a few other institutions (that shall remain nameless) and dropped because I felt the programs were of poor quality and that the instruction was completely lacking. I understand that the courses are online, but that is no excuse to let students teach themselves.
ACE is different. The reading selections are applicable, and the instructional media and assignments support the learning 100%. I have taken online courses at 7 different institutions of higher education and so far the course I just finished at ACE was hands-down the best. I am very happy with my decision so far and I can only hope that the remainder of the classes are equally good!

ACE has good discussion prompts that lets the students get to know each other. The work is quite rigorous, but because of that I am learning a lot! Some assignments are a bit long, so I think that is something that could be changed. I would recommend ACE to others because the tuition is much less expensive than some other schools, and the programs are 5 weeks, which I like a lot. Some of their presentations are dated, from 2010 and need to be updated.
Contrary to what others say that there’s a huge workload, it is actually manageable for a full-time teacher and mother like me. The work is fast-paced and you’re expected to know APA style upon entering, but there are many resources online that can help with that if you’re not not familiar. It’s all about time management. I just finished my 9th course out of 12 and it is very fulfilling. The courses are hard-yes. But what do you expect from a Master’s program? That it is going to be easy? Let’s be realistic now. Love ACE!
