to share their many years of experience in an interesting and enthusiastic
class, designed to make your learning experience enjoyable.

Our goal is to make your learning experience as enjoyable as possible.
We have taken the complex realm of individual tax law and summarized it
into 24 classroom sessions and a 24-Chapter student workbook.

We utilize numerous educational techniques to offer you the opportunity
to find a learning tool that works for you. Each session is divided
into a number of different learning activities including:
.
- Lecture and working illustrations of session's topic.
- Time for you to complete classwork assignments and ask questions.
- A review of each session's classwork assignment and a detailed answer key.
- A Homework assignment follows every class giving you the opportunity
to apply and reinforce what you learned.
- An instructor review of each session's Homework assignment is accompanied by a detailed
answer key.
- A practice quiz is given every session to test your knowledge and hone your skills for the Preparers' Exam.
- A detailed review and answer key follows each quiz to help you understand the
why's and how's of each quiz question.

Our sessions are fast-paced and never boring, so come prepared
to learn! We will give you working problems, illustrations
and answers to help you learn for the “real world” of tax
preparation.

are permitted prepare tax returns as paid professionals.
