Tax Research Certificate Program Helps Hone Knowledge and Skills

Thomson Reuters has launched a new Checkpoint Learning Tax Research Certificate Program designed to help professionals develop foundational tax research knowledge and skills. It is designed to fill in knowledge gaps for entry-level tax professionals and those re-entering the workforce after an extended leave. The program also applies to accounting and audit professionals from diverse organizations who wish to gain valuable tax research capabilities.

Delivered via the powerful CPEasy platform, this blended learning format includes live instructor-led webinars, a comprehensive online self-study course, and a written tax research case study that will equip professionals with the tools they need to effectively and efficiently perform federal and state tax research. The case study is manually graded with valuable feedback provided to each program participant.

“From dependence on unreliable internet sources, to lack of clarity on the import of law, case law, commentary and treatises, many tax leaders find their staff underprepared to perform real-world tax research, which has significant time and cost implications to organizations,” said Eli Dicker, Executive Director of the Tax Executives Institute (TEI).
