The overall employment rate in the Graduate Outcome Survey indicates that 9 out of 10 students from ACPE are employed within the first 6 months of graduating. In fact, evidence suggests that most students gain employment prior to graduation as a result of engaging with our extensive partnership network and engagement with industry during their studies.
A positive and quality student experience is at the heart of everything we do at ACPE. For new students who are making decisions about where to study, the best source of information on what to expect at a higher education institution is to hear direct from students who have been there. This is why the positive ratings on the Student Experience Survey (SES) data is invaluable – it cuts through the sales spin. Feedback also informs many of the decisions we make and allows us to constantly adapt and tweak our courses and services to students and partners to ensure that our graduates are thoroughly equipped for their intended career and industry ready.
Our students’ experiences speak volumes about what it means to study at ACPE.
