ACE Committee

Anaesthesia Continuing Education (ACE) is a tripartite committee comprising ANZCA, the Australian Society of Anaesthetists (ASA), and the New Zealand Society of Anaesthetists (NZSA).

The ACE Committee reports to the councils of its three parent organisations and aims to:

  • Coordinate all continuing education activities related to anaesthesia, throughout Australia and New Zealand.   
  • Develop and promote all aspects of continuing education for anaesthetists.   
  • Ensure that continuing education in anaesthesia is meeting the needs of consumers.   
  • Ensure that all continuing education activities adhere to policies established by ANZCA, the Australian Society of Anaesthetists and the New Zealand Society of Anaesthetists.
