I don't think that there are enough studio employers who know about the ACE to understand what it measures. Most studios are going to look at your work first. Your ability to complete compositing/animation projects within budget/time seems to be related to what the ACE tests for.
I agree with Chris - that a school/institution might find it appealing as an accreditation. On the other hand, some schools (art center, otis, calarts, gnomon) are more interested in your portfolio and use of software than your proficiency with the application buttons/layout/navigation. In accredited schools, students evaluate instructors to administration. Students' reviews may be influenced by your button-ability (or ability to address every part of the application; whether you use it or not). You're probably familiar with this last part.
