What is it about?
This reviewed paper focused on the Nigerian Certificate in Education (NCE) and the problem of science graduates' employability as a bane for unemployment in Nigeria. The script discussed the challenges facing the NCE graduates and attributed it to the teacher education programme's issues. Some sources of these problems are inadequate curriculum, government policy, and others. The article conceptualized Application, Creativity, and Employability (ACE) to explain the unemployment challenge among the NCE science graduate in Nigeria. An ACE framework to solve this problem was formed and highlighted some benefits of the ACE for colleges of education programme. The article discussed some implications the ACE may have on the Nigerian colleges of education science.

Why is it important?
The ACE framework is critical for science graduates' employment anywhere in the globe. The application of scientific knowledge and creativity are essential to problem-solving, which will make any graduate employable or jobs creators.
Perspectives
I looked at science graduates from Nigerian Colleges of Education as people who cannot do any job besides teaching. These graduates should create jobs for themselves or work in companies if colleges of education curriculum embrace ACE framework.
