Unenrolled Tax Preparers Competency Prep Course

New! LIVE SEMINAR:  2 DAYS | TAXES FOCUS | BASIC LEVEL | $249*

On January 4, 2010, the IRS announced their preparer initiative that will require all unenrolled tax preparers to successfully complete competency testing and mandatory continuing education. The IRS has indicated that the unenrolled tax preparer exam requirements will probably not be available until mid-2011. This comprehensive instructor-led two-day course, however, is designed to provide you with the training you will need to pass the Unenrolled Tax Preparers Exam when it is eventually implemented.  (Note, this preparatory course does not award CPE credit.)
