What’s really happening behind the scenes in education consulting right now? 

In this panel, Ish (ex-BCG) sits down with Mark Finlan (Huron), Laura Brookhiser (L.E.K.), and Miriam El-Baz (Grant Thornton Stax) for a fast, unfiltered look at how top firms are navigating a rapidly shifting education landscape.

You’ll hear how these firms are responding to enrollment pressure, the return of standardized testing, AI’s influence on academic integrity, and the growing role of private equity across the education ecosystem.

The panel also shares clear, practical advice for anyone trying to break into education consulting in 2025 — including what actually makes candidates stand out in interviews.
