The TEI Federal Tax Course – Level 2 is designed to address the increasing complexity and scrutiny facing today’s in-house tax function. Moving beyond the fundamentals, the course covers high-impact areas such as corporate transactions, joint ventures and partnerships, executive compensation, financial products, and advanced income tax accounting under ASC 740, while also addressing tax technology, risk management, and navigating IRS audits and appeals.
