Skills development across the full pipeline.
ACES designs and delivers skills programmes across every stage of education and workforce entry — not just AI literacy, but the full spread from foundational computer skills to applied, job-ready capability.
The common thread across every programme: it is built to be delivered at scale through existing institutions — schools, TAFEs, universities and government skilling bodies — rather than requiring learners to come to us. Train-the-trainer is built into every track.
| Stage | Computer & Digital Skills | AI Literacy & Fluency | Future-Ready / Employability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Schools (K–12) | Foundational digital literacy, office & productivity tools, safe internet use | Age-appropriate AI awareness and responsible-use fundamentals | Problem-solving, digital citizenship, early career exposure |
| Senior secondary (11th–12th) | Applied computer training — the priority track for most government skilling budgets | Generative AI tools, prompt basics, ethical and safe use | Portfolio-building, subject-linked live projects |
| College & TAFE / vocational | Workplace digital tools, trade-specific software literacy | AI-assisted workflows relevant to the trade or discipline | Industry placement readiness, capstone projects |
| University & undergraduate | Advanced digital and data literacy across disciplines | The ACES Applied AI credential — automation and agent-building, capstone-assessed | Live-project capstones, stackable micro-credentials |
| Government & public-sector staff | Digital-service delivery skills for frontline and administrative staff | AI-in-government literacy, responsible and compliant use | Change-readiness for AI-enabled public services |
Delivered through the institutions that already exist.
No parallel delivery infrastructure required — programmes are designed to run through the schools, colleges, universities and government bodies already in place.
Curriculum design
Modular, stage-appropriate curriculum mapped to the learner's actual starting point — from foundational computer skills to applied AI capability.
Hybrid delivery
Self-paced online modules combined with live, educator-led sessions and hands-on project work — built to work for a school classroom, a TAFE cohort or a corporate team alike.
Train-the-trainer
Educator-certification layer so partner institutions can deliver and sustain the programme themselves, rather than remaining dependent on external delivery.
Credentialing
Stackable, portable credentials and digital badges — recognisable to employers and, where applicable, mapped to existing qualification frameworks.
Train-the-trainer, built inEvery ACES programme includes an educator-certification track, so the institution — not ACES — becomes the long-term owner of delivery capability. This is what makes programmes sustainable at scale across large school and college networks.
