The Center For American Education (CAE) was established in 1997 with the mission of providing a unique opportunity to obtain a quality American education in Singapore.

CAE offers a two-year university level Associate of Arts (AA) degree in partnership with Broward College, Florida, USA. On the graduate level, CAE offers a MBA from Western Michigan University and Master's of Education in School Counseling from the State University of New York at Buffalo. CAE is also working in collaboration with other universities such as the University of Minnesota and University of South Florida to offer degrees and certificate programs. The Center also provides preparatory courses for American tertiary entrance examinations and other continuing education training and enrichment courses.

In 1998, the U.S. State department appointed CAE to run the United States Education Information Center (USEIC). USEIC is recognized by the U.S. government as the official source of information on American education.

The Center For American Education is a member of the ISS Education Group (incorporated in 1981) with subsidiaries in Singapore and Beijing.
