The Council for Advancement and Support of Education was born in 1974, the marriage of two important forces in the higher education arena: the American Alumni Council and the American College Public Relations Association.

From its original mission of developing and maintaining strong relationships with key stakeholders in colleges,  universities and schools in the United States, CASE has expanded its reach, impact and membership in the years since, opening offices in London (CASE Europe, 1994), Singapore (CASE Asia-Pacific, 2007) and Mexico City (CASE Latin America, 2011 ) while welcoming other educational institutions and nonprofit organizations from more than 82 countries as partners and allies.

Whether it’s helping our members market their institutions to prospective students and families; diversify, strengthen and promote advancement as a viable career path; or communicate the critical importance of education, CASE provides research, training and guidance to all who work on behalf of advancing and supporting education as critical institutions of prospering societies.
