                  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.
