This course relates to South African Taxes only*

As a tax professional, learners are immediately confronted with large volumes of detailed tax theory, and struggle to understand how the theory fits into the end goal of preparing tax computations.

This course has been designed to develop a foundation of simple application upon which the complexities of taxation can be built at a later stage. The approach to this session is practical rather than theoretical.
