Both staff and students are involved in the ACE Star Programs. Details of ACE Star Community Engagement Programs at Avondale are provided in Appendix 1. In this regard, Appendix 2 provides all ACE PLUS activity involving students in Service Learning, Placements and Work-Integrated Learning contexts. Evidence of staff engagement in community engagement that is not reflected in Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 activities have been provided in the Staff Record 2014-2016 table and accompanying chart. Please note that the chart does not take into account staff engagement in the ACE STAR programs identified in Appendix 1.

However, this rating scale is currently under review and requires further review and development.
