What accreditations does KIEC hold and what do they mean?

KIEC holds three independent credentials: QEAC (Quality Education Agents Certification, administered by PIER Online — the standard for Australia-bound agents), ITAC (issued by ICEF, the global network of education counsellors), and USATC recognition for US-pathway agents. These are third-party verifications, not self-issued — ask to see the certificates at your first appointment.

KIEC has offices in Australia — can I get support after I arrive?

Yes. KIEC operates offices in Melbourne and Sydney. Once you arrive, you can contact the relevant Australian office for accommodation guidance, enrolment follow-up, and post-arrival support. This is a meaningful advantage over agencies that have no in-country presence after you land.

About KIEC Education Biratnagar

KIEC (Kathmandu Infosys Educational Consultancy Pvt. Ltd.) was established on 19 September 2006 by founder and CEO Rajendra Rijal and has grown into one of Nepal's most credentialed education consultancies.

The agency operates from a purpose-built facility at KIEC Avenue 44/05, Lalupatey Marg, Putalisadak — an address that has become a landmark in Nepal's education consultancy district. Beyond Kathmandu, KIEC has branches in Dillibazar, Chitwan, Biratnagar, Birgunj, Birtamode, Pokhara, Butwal, Lalitpur, Kalanki, and Parsa, plus international offices in Melbourne and Sydney.

Our research

ConsultancyCheck's own assessment, from public records and the company's own materials. This is our judgement — not a summary of student reviews.

Strengths

✓QEAC, ICEF/ITAC, and USATC triple certification — among the strongest credential combinations in Nepal
✓Largest office network in Nepal: 10+ Nepal branches plus Melbourne and Sydney offices
✓Dedicated counsellors for each destination market, not generalist advisers
✓On-site test preparation: IELTS, PTE, TOEFL, GMAT — reduces need to use separate providers
✓Est. 2006 — 18+ years of continuous operation with documented student placement history

Limitations

!Scale means experience can vary by branch and individual counsellor — always ask specifically about your counsellor's destination track record
!The Putalisadak head office can be busy; afternoon and weekday morning slots are typically less crowded
!USATC credential is less well-known than QEAC or ICEF; students should ask specifically about US-specific institutional partnerships

How KIEC Education Biratnagar get paid

Free for students

KIEC Education Biratnagar does not charge students a placement fee. Like most education agents, it is paid a commission by the universities it places students into. That does not make its advice bad — but the agent is paid by the institution, not by you, so it has more financial reason to recommend a partner university than a non-partner one. Ask which universities it represents, and whether your shortlist is on that list.

★★★★★

KIEC Biratnagar has been the best consultancy experience I’ve had. The counselors are knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful — guiding me step-by-step through the entire application and visa process. Highly professional and transparent. Truly the best in Biratnagar. Highly recommended.
