Who are ACELS?

ACELS are the  Advisory Council for English Language Schools in Ireland.

The Advisory Council for English Language Schools (ACELS) was established in 1969 under the auspices of the Irish Department of Education & Science to control standards in EFL schools and organisations through an inspection/recognition scheme.

ACELS administers the scheme which leads to School Recognition by the Department of Education & Science. The list of recognised ELT organisations is published on an annual basis – please follow the link on the left for The Official List of Schools and Organisations Recognised by the Department of Education & Science 2009, which includes the schools’ contact details.

ACELS’ remit also includes recognition of teacher training (TEFL) courses and the development of materials and examinations for overseas students. For more information on the EL Teacher Registration & Qualifications Recognition Project (ELTRQRP) or the Test of Interactive English (TIE), please visit the ACELS Website.
