The Columbus Education Association can trace its origin back to the period immediately following the American Civil War. Although records are far from complete, CEA was originally the outgrowth of two organizations.

The Women's Teachers' Association of Columbus, Ohio, was the oldest of the merging bodies. It apparently was organized in 1871. The Women's Teachers' Association espoused the goals of "enlightening society and building the profession."
