The Department of Education & Science controls standards in ELT schools and organisations through an inspection/recognition scheme for English Language Teaching organisations (ELTOs) in Ireland.

The Accreditation and Co-ordination of English Language Services (ACELS) was established in 1969 under the auspices of the Irish Department of Education & Science to control standards in ELT schools and organisations through an inspection/recognition scheme for English Language Teaching organisations (ELTOs) in Ireland.
