	The Australian College of Applied Education (ACAE) previously the Australian School of Tourism and Hotel Management (ASTHM), Australia's first private Hotel School, is a highly respected Registered Training Organisation (RTO) established and owner operated since 1989 in Perth WA. Today ACAE is proud to offer a comprehensive choice of accredited courses to students ranging from; hospitality, cookery, business, management and accounting. ACAE was awarded the International Training Provider of the Year 2012 at the WA Training Awards and was also a finalist for the WA Small Training Provider of the Year 2012 in addition to being a finalist in the Australian International Training Provider of the Year award in Melbourne.

	The Australian College of Applied Education is made up of 5 schools; School of Culinary Arts, School of Tourism and Hotel Management, School of Business and Management, School of Accounting and Finance and Australian English Language Centre.

	== School of Culinary Arts ==
	=== About the School of Culinary Arts ===
	Delivering high quality commercial cookery and patisserie certificate courses in Perth, Western Australia. ASCA is the only private training provider to deliver training to Australian Chef Apprentices.

	The Australian School of Culinary Arts (ASCA)is a school solely devoted to the teaching of Culinary Arts and to developing aspiring young chefs.

	Our Perth school is closer to the city centre. Our students are closer to the energy of the kitchens in the big hotels. Our focus on practical training takes you closer to the real world experience you need to achieve the transition from being a student to becoming a qualified Chef or Chef Patissier.

	Our Culinary Arts programs include the Australian Commercial Cookery and Patisserie courses, both focused on teaching the skills and knowledge of preparing and presenting food to the highest possible standards that lead our students to graduation and ultimately their future careers as professional chefs.


	=== Courses at School of Culinary Arts ===
	==== SIT20312 - Certificate II in Kitchen Operations ====

	This pre-apprenticeship course offers a pathway for Australian students into a full time apprenticeship on successful completion or as a foundation course for international students who want to gain a broad skill base. Students will be taught practical cooking skills and excellent overall product knowledge. Topics include food preparation and presentation techniques with a variety of ingredients. The course includes a high level of practical training so you get first hand work experience as a chef.

	===== 6 Months Full Time - Pre Apprenticeship

	Opportunities =====
	Students are employed in a commercial kitchen to gain the required real experiences. Successful graduates have the skills and knowledge to be employed as cooks, non-trades people or apprentices.

	Australian citizens or Permanent Residents who complete the course successfully are guaranteed placement into a Chef Apprenticeship. Successful completion of this course will enable a term reduction when you start your apprenticeship.

	Available to permanent Australian residents, apprenticeships are undertaken while you are employed and getting on-the-job training to support the high quality off-the-job training we provide at ASCA. You and your employer sign training agreements with a selected Australian Apprentice Centre to be indentured into your chosen apprenticeship.

	Employed apprentice chefs/patissiers must nominate to complete the required off-the-job training with ASCA while they continue workplace training.

	Another popular option is to complete a Pre-Apprenticeship - the Certificate II in Hospitality (Kitchen Operations) - before starting your apprenticeship. This is popular because it allows you to start the employment you prefer and complete your apprenticeship with the employer of your choice.

	You will also be able to apply for a half year term reduction when you finish your apprenticeship.

Australian College of Applied Education
Former names	Australian School of Tourism and Hotel Management
Type	Private
Active	1989–2017 (2017)
Parent institution	Careers Australia
Location	Perth, Western Australia, Australia 31°57′00″S 115°51′13″E / 31.9499°S 115.8537°E / -31.9499; 115.8537
Campus	Urban
Website	www.acae.edu.au

The Australian College of Applied Education (ACAE), previously the Australian School of Tourism and Hotel Management (ASTHM), Australia's first private hotel school, was established in 1989 in Perth. ACAE ran courses ranging from hospitality and cookery, to business, management and accounting.

ACAE's parent Careers Australia generated hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer funding for expensive training courses. Investigations by ABC television journalists revealed the company was targeting vulnerable students using door-to-door sales brokers offering "free" computers as inducements to enroll. When that sales tactic was banned by the Federal Government, Careers Australia moved to telemarketing, online competitions offering "free" iPads, and employment websites to obtain people's personal information without their knowledge. In April 2017 the Federal Government denied Careers Australia access to its vocational education scheme because of its poor track record, which included the company admitting to breaking consumer law. The business, including ACAE's Perth campus, was closed down on 25 May.
