Further to this, the CPE has now issued a six month suspension of the College's EduTrust certification. This means that while the College will continue to operate to fulfill its obligations to current registered students and can continue to recruit local students to the College, it is unable to recruit foreign students during the suspension period.\nAEC will apply for an assessment of the College's eligibility for a reinstatement of the EduTrust certification in three months' time. In the intervening period, AEC is continuing to address with urgency all regulatory and compliance issues.\nA further update on the matter will be provided in due course.\n \n \nEnquiries:\n \n\n\n\n\nAEC Education PLC\n\n\n\n\n\nTel: +44 (0) 7775 787 427\n\n\n\n\nLiam Swords\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWH Ireland Limited (NOMAD)\n\n\n\n\n\nTel: +44 (0)161 832 2174\n\n\n\n\nDan Bate\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBiddicks\n\n\n\n\n\nTel: +44 (0) 20 3178 6378\n\n\n\n\nKatie Tzouliadis / Alex Shilov\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\nThis information is provided by RNSThe company news service from the London Stock Exchange END MSCUGUBARUPWGQR\n ","length":5240,"tagName":"div"}]
