Academy

Tax engineering, taught from the file.

Courses built on the questions clients actually bring — priced, documented and argued the way an auditor will test them. Taught by the practice lead, not a content team.

Practice track

For advisers, finance teams and founders

Each course takes one recurring cross-border problem and works it through to the document that survives an audit.

Questions

Who are the courses for?

Accountants, in-house tax and finance teams, lawyers and founders who deal with cross-border questions — and ADIT candidates.

What level do they assume?

A working knowledge of corporate tax. Terms of art are defined where they first appear.

What language are they in?

English first. Latvian and Russian editions follow where there is demand.

Do they count as CPD?

Each certificate states the hours completed. Whether your professional body accepts them is its decision — check its rules before relying on them.

Why is there no monthly plan?

With one course published, a monthly plan would cost less than the course itself. A monthly option comes once the library has four courses; founding members keep their annual price.

Is this advice?

No. A course explains how the rules work; it does not assess your facts. For that, write to the practice.
