Australian Screen Editors Guild Accreditation is a bit like an honorary degree. Henry Dangar ASE, the first president of the guild, described it thus: "It is not given lightly. It is given by editing peers and therefore has a high value attached to it. It is an acknowledgement of a very strong body of work over a period of time. It is an acknowledgement of an editor who has continued to pass on the craft of editing to those who want to learn. It is an acknowledgement of an editor who has continued to work actively in promoting the values of good editing and editing practices." For an editor to receive an ASE accreditation, it is a very high honour. To date, the guild has accredited fifty-five editors, to see a list of their names please click here.
