Education
With world-class education, Australia boasts many opportunities for education providers. However with changes in funding and market conditions, long-term strategic advice from SW accountants & advisors can make all the difference.
Education providers are adapting to digital delivery of courses, international student enrolment fluctuations and navigating funding – whether through fees, government grants or investments. At SW, we have a deep understanding of these challenges and potential opportunities.
Our education accountants & advisors have 50 years’ experience in providing advisory, audit and tax services to leading universities, TAFEs and private schools. We work with 35 of the 43 education institutions in Australia which has helped us to benchmark best practice in the sector, and the advice we offer goes beyond cost control and compliance.
Beyond our core services, we work with clients to identify genuine, value-driven efficiencies and process improvements as well as providing commercial and practical advice. We look to assist clients to develop strategies that drive organisational value and revenue growth.
