In 1987 the Alabama College Placement Association and the Alabama
Cooperative Education Association merged to form the Alabama College
Co-op and Placement Association (ACCPA). ACCPA operated as a
network of educational institutions, businesses, industries, and
government agencies working together to help Alabama's college graduates
embark upon successful careers. At the 1996 Winter Conference,
ACCPA adopted a name change in support of and cooperation with the
national and regional associations. The new name is the Alabama
Association of Colleges and Employers (AACE), a consortium of
cooperative education, career services, and employers. Our motto
"Industry and education in partnership" is still working!
Membership in a professional organization like AACE provides information
on employment opportunities for students and graduates of our colleges and
universities and it helps promote high standards of work and ethical
practices. The contact with other professionals, the meetings,
workshops and conferences, add to the personal growth and professional
development of AACE members.
