Awarding Body : The Accreditation and Coordination of English Language Services (ACELS)
The Accreditation and Coordination of English Language Services (ACELS) is a legacy function of Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI). They are the national body responsible for the development and management of English Language Teaching organisations (ELTOs) nationally.
History of ACELS
The Service was established in 1969 under the auspices of the Irish Department of Education & Science. It controls standards in English Language Teaching (ELT) schools and organisations.

All recognised ELTOs may carry the following legend: Recognised by ACELS, a service of Quality and Qualifications Ireland, for English language teaching.
