Welcome to the Accelerated Curriculum in Ethics Class of 2025

June 24, 2025


This month OGE welcomed the 2025 class to commence more than 20 days of instruction in the Accelerated Curriculum in Ethics (ACE). The ACE program is the most intensive offering from OGE’s Institute for Ethics in Government. It is designed to develop new and aspiring ethics program leaders.

Previous participants have gone on to lead ethics programs across the executive branch. This year’s class comprises more than 30 new and aspiring ethics program leaders from across a variety of departments, agencies, and offices, including officials from White House agencies and Cabinet-level departments. OGE is pleased to welcome them to the program and looks forward to helping prepare them to provide ethics leadership to the United States government.
