Integrated spectra of 17 LMC clusters were obtained in the (3600–6800)A range using the CASLEO (Argentina) 2.15 m telescope. Cluster ages were derived by means of two methods: the template matching, in which the observed spectra are compared and matched to template spectra with welldetermined properties, and the Equivalent Width (EW)
