Paul Campey, Partner, Resolve Consultants: A Candid Deep Dive into the Financial Sustainability of Christian Education Generally and Northwest Christian School Specifically

Kingdom Culture Conversations

As we will learn today, education in Australia is different. Very different. Without the stringent separation between church and state that we find in the U.S., the Australian government uses public funding to support both public and private schools. As a result, close to half of Australian students are enrolled in private education with many of these young people enrolled in faith-based schools.
But, there's a catch.
In Australia, the government requires strict financial reporting of these schools. Paul Campey, an Aussie with feet in both the CPA world and the world of Christian education founded Resolve Consultants in order to stand in the gap. Paul developed a thorough reporting instrument that both provides the Australian government with the peace of mind that they are seeking and the ability for Australian Christian schools to glean a clear understanding of their financial standing and sustainability.
Having run this program for years, establishing a baseline for sustainable, financial performance through developing a series of Key Performance Indicators, Paul began to wonder how Australian baselines compared against American baselines. He was stunned to discover that no one in the U.S. was doing the sort of financial analysis that he was providing.
Today, we will hear Paul's story, learn how Grand Canyon University worked to bring Resolve to the U.S., and how American Christian ed is performing generally.
More to the point, having now done two analyses of Northwest Christian School over three years, Paul will reveal--candidly and forthrightly--how NCS is faring today and how it will likely fare in the years to come!
