American Council on Education Responds to COVID-19

The American Council on Education (ACE), along with its member institutions and associations, is continuing to closely monitor the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak and its severity both in the United States and globally.

Given the rapidly changing situation, ACE is taking proactive steps to address the concerns and needs of its members and the higher education community. The ACE webpage for COVID-19 information will be updated with new resources and upcoming online events as they become available.

For the latest medical information and guidance, ACE recommends visiting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's website.

Many of ACE’s up-to-the-minute COVID-19 resources for the higher education community can be found on ACE Engage and in the ACE news room. ACE Engage is a peer-to-peer online learning platform curated by ACE experts exclusively for higher education executives. If you are not a member of ACE Engage, access to the resource is currently free of charge.
