Macmillan Education was created as an imprint and division of the broader Macmillan publishing business in the UK in the early 1970s.In 1994 it became legally framed within Macmillan Education Ltd, a company in the Macmillan group.

During the 1990s, while the overall Macmillan group became acquired by the Holtzbrinck family, Macmillan Education increased its multinational presence, setting up offices in several countries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and South America.

Expansion also involved the acquisition of Heinemann ELT in 1998, and new publishing initiatives including Macmillan Open Learning (supplying educational programmes), the MOTIVATE series of vocational training texts, and the College Essential Histories.
