YOUR CLASSROOM IS THE REAL WORLD!
Our program differs from traditional on-line programs where you log into pre-recorded sessions, and you are left to learn the material on your own with no one available to answer your questions. We offer live virtual training each week within a small group setting consisting of 5-10 upstarts (students in the program) where I provide live instruction and interactive classroom activities that coincide with the weekly homework assignment and practice for your weekly externship hours along with one-on-one coaching sessions each month.
No prior tax experience required!!
