Abstract	ALICE (Accelerators and Lasers in Combined Experiments) is a 35 MeV energy recovery linac based light source. ALICE is being developed as an experimental test-bed for a broad suite of science and technology activities that make use of electron acceleration and ultra-short pulse laser techniques. This paper reports the progress made in accelerator commissioning and includes the results of measurement made on the commissioning beam. The steps taken to prepare the beam for short pulse operation as a driver for a Compton Back Scattered source and in preparation for the commissioning of the free electron laser are reported.
