iae began in October 1992 when iae Edu Net, Eduhouse Inc was founded in Seoul, South Korea. Starting with a single office, iae Edu Net has grown to have 14 sales operations in South Korea and, through the global management company, iae GLOBAL, an extensive network of branches and joint-venture partner offices in major international student recruitment markets in China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Nepal, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. Backing this network, iae GLOBAL also has support and onshore offices in Australia, Canada, New Zealand (NZ) and the United Kingdom (UK).

This commitment and passion has established iae GLOBAL as the leading and most diverse global recruitment company and educational consultancy in the world. Since the establishment of the first iae office in 1992, the company has enjoyed exceptional growth, developing an internationally recognised brand name and a reputation that is now the standard for student recruitment in the international education industry.
