The ACPET Mission is to:

Enhance quality, choice, innovation and diversity in Australian education and training for individual, national and global development. Work pro-actively and co-operatively with government, education and training providers, industry and community organisations, in order to ensure that vocational and higher education and training services provide choice and diversity, and well-targeted, appropriately delivered courses which are widely accessible and of high quality.

With a focus on ensuring that ACPET members maintain their competitive market position by delivering the highest quality products and services to students and industry, and differentiate themselves within the market on the basis of this quality, GPA and e2e.net signed a national agreement with ACPET on 3rd July 2009.
