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 Summer 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 cooperation 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.
