ACES - the Automated Corporate Evaluation Service - was designed to provide corporate customers with a fully automated system to help them assess the impact of courses at the UK Open University. It is a web-based system, and provides a secure server where questionnaires can be placed for access through the Internet. 360 degree questionnaires are used to evaluate how students put their learning into practice in the workplace. ACES then combines and analyses this data, embedding results into word-processed and graphical reports for use by corporate clients.
