PhillipsKPA was formed in July 2004 through the merger of two leading education industry consulting groups: Phillips Curran and KPA Consulting.

Phillips Curran was established in late 1996 and has provided high level consultancy services for all of Australia’s public universities, and for education peak bodies, Commonwealth and State government departments and agencies, education sector unions, and major private enterprises.

KPA Consulting was formed in mid 2002 and comprised the former member s of KPMG Consulting’s national education consulting practice. KPA Consulting’s Australian and international clients extended across and beyond the education industry to commercial organisations and government.

PhillipsKPA maintains the consulting strength and experience of the former two groups, plus the greater synergies and capacity generated through the merger. As the company continues to grow we are looking to extend our capacity into new areas of service while still maintaining our expert focus in the education and training industry.
