Clarity of purpose

ACPE is crystal clear about its objective; to help you build a competitive advantage in the job market.

All career materials are built by a leading professional Career Consultant with 17 years of experience in this area in the corporate, community and education sectors.

Job competency building

We'll help you identify what job competencies employers are looking for in the field you want to get into, and then give you the strategies and/or tools necessary to attain those before you graduate

Access to the right people

We'll link you with leading industry employers and leaders to build your network and exposure to opportunities.

Academic preparation and job search

We'll help you learn how to write essays and study for exams or with literacy and numeracy needs if you're struggling in these areas. Plus, we'll teach you how to search for the right jobs, how to write resumes and how to be competitive in interviews.

Learning by doing

ACPE utilises a hands on approach to your learning so you have a sound theoretical base plus a high level of focus on practical application of that knowledge.

Personal touch and high standards

We pride ourselves on being able to deliver our programs to a high standard for two reasons; our lecturers are experienced industry experts and we have low student-to-teacher ratios. So you will have abundant access to academics, student services and support staff.

Location

No other facility nation-wide can boast access to Australia's premier sporting facilities and organisations within a stone's throw of your classroom.

Athlete support and finding the balance

We cater for both elite and recreational athletes and strike the right balance between supporting students in the pursuit of their academic, athletic, and personal goals.

Financial support

Domestic students have access to FEE-HELP, the Federal Government's financial assistance scheme that lets you study without paying tuition fees upfront.

Credibility and History

ACPE is an accredited Higher Education Provider and our degrees are accredited by Tertiary Education Quality Standards Agency. We've been helping people build careers in sports, dance, and education since 1917.

Culture

Ask any of our students or graduates and you will find that our culture at ACPE is rated one of the best aspects of the College. While we push ourselves at ACPE, we think it's just as important to get to know your fellow students and celebrate your achievements together.
