The buzzword in Kentucky public education these days is transition readiness, including the preparation of students for both academic advancement and career opportunities. The Kentucky Educational Development Corporation (KEDC) has developed a program to assist schools and students to achieve these goals.


Achievement in Career Engagement (ACE) helps students develop work-based learning skills through an endorsement program which allows students to record various levels of achievement through the documentation of successful accomplishments. These accomplishments are personalized by students and confirmed and validated by KEDC.


“We really listened to the kids, what they said, what appealed to them, and what kept them coming back,” Slone said. “Students found ACE easier to navigate than their current individual learning plans (ILP) and helpful when filling out job, scholarship and college applications.”
