                 CERTIFICATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
                        PURSUANT TO SECTION 302
                  OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002


I, Jeffrey E. Butler, certify that:

1.  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB/A of The American
Education Corporation;

2.  Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

3.  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects
the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
small business issuer as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.  The small business issuer's other certifying officers and I are
responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for
the small business issuer and have:

  a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
      disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
      supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
      small business issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
      made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during
      the period in which this report is being prepared;

  b)  reserved;

  c)  evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's disclosure
      controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions
      about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as
      of the end of the period covered by this report based upon such
      evaluation; and

  d)  disclosed in this report any change in the small business issuer's
      internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
      small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small business
      issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that
      has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
      the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting;

5.  The small business issuer's other certifying officer and I have
disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and the audit
committee of the small business issuer's board of directors (or persons
performing the equivalent functions):

  a)  all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
      operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
      reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business issuer's
      ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
      information; and

  b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
      employees who have a significant role in the small business issuer's
      internal controls over financial reporting.
