Balancing ADIT with work and family life
One of our students came to us wanting to study the ADIT Principles of International Tax but wasn't sure she could fit it around her in-house tax role and a young child. Her employer recognised the value of ADIT for the team's ongoing projects and agreed to fund the course. Thanks to our weekly evening class structure, she didn't need to request a single day of study leave.
She started her studies knowing she could defer if life got too busy. She caught up on recordings during her commute. She worked through weekly assignments at her own pace. She attended live classes from home, with no travel and no childcare to arrange. She passed first time.
After the course, Kristen, our Client Relations Manager, caught up with her about her experience. It was exactly the kind of story that sums up what ExtraTax Training's courses are designed to make possible.

What to expect from your ADIT course
Live classes in small groups, with recordings
Your weekly tuition classes are live, online, and deliberately small. Small enough that you can ask questions, share experiences from your work, and get a real answer from your tutor. Classes are typically two hours, starting at 4pm UK time, a time we have found works well across multiple time zones. Principles of International Tax and UK Tax run for two and a half hours. All classes are recorded and available on your learning platform immediately afterwards, so missing a session never means missing the content.
Weekly structure that builds understanding
Each week of the 10 or 11 week tuition phase follows the same pattern: attend your live class, complete your reading and assignment, then come back the following week ready to go deeper. This rhythm is consistently what our students tell us makes the difference. You consolidate as you go, rather than trying to retain everything at once.
Weekend revision classes and mock exams
As your exam approaches, interactive weekend revision classes help you consolidate the syllabus and focus on exam technique. Mock exams with individual written feedback give you a clear picture of where you stand before the real thing.
UK and Ireland based tutors
All ExtraTax Training tutors are based in the UK or Ireland, with deep expertise in the modules they teach. Catriona Loughran FCA CTA ADIT CTC, the first person in Ireland to gain the ADIT qualification, founded ExtraTax Training in 2019. ExtraTax Training has offered ADIT courses since 2020.
Catriona teaches UK Tax, supported by Alyson Sutcliffe, and Transfer Pricing. Linda Mercel, Director of Tax Training and Learning, teaches Principles of International Tax. Associate tutors cover the remaining modules. All work closely with the ExtraTax Training team, so you get the same standard of course regardless of which module you choose.

Kristen, with you from first enquiry to results day
From the moment you get in touch, you'll be looked after by Kristen Gillanders, our Client Relations Manager. Kristen has supported ExtraTax Training students for almost five years. She knows the ADIT exam calendar inside out: registration deadlines, exam entry windows, mock submission dates. She'll remind you when each one is coming up, so you don't have to keep track yourself. If you haven't been online for a few weeks, she'll check in to see how you're getting on. Students get to know Kristen well over the course of their studies, and she gets to know them.
Study materials included
Study materials are included in all course packages, tailored to each module. Principles of International Tax and Transfer Pricing students receive an online subscription to the Bloomsbury International Tax Service, the primary study resource for those modules. UK Tax and Ireland Tax students receive an ExtraTax Training study manual, designed to be accessible to all levels of experience, including those newer to the subject. EU VAT, Banking, and US Tax courses use published texts appropriate to each module. All packages also include class recordings, weekly assignments, and access to an online forum where you can raise queries with your tutor and fellow students. Some packages include a hard copy of your core text delivered to you.
Flexible options to suit your situation
For Principles of International Tax, Transfer Pricing and UK Tax, courses are available in Core, Select and Extra packages, with differences in access period, additional tutor support, and peace of mind features such as a free return to the course if you need to resit. EU VAT, Ireland Tax, US Tax and Banking each have a single course option, equivalent to the Select package. Full details are on each module page.

What our students say
I studied for three ADIT modules, taking UK Tax with ExtraTax Training and Principles of International Tax and Transfer Pricing with a larger, better-known provider. I preferred ExtraTax Training for several reasons.
Catriona and Alyson are very talented and knowledgeable teachers. ExtraTax Training provides one class per week, rather than cramming all the topics into several full-time days, enabling the classes to go into greater depth. ExtraTax Training's administration was far more efficient. Emails were answered promptly, rather than several days later.

About the ADIT Qualification
The Advanced Diploma in International Taxation (ADIT) is awarded by the Chartered Institute of Taxation and is the leading international tax qualification for professionals working in cross-border tax. Candidates must pass three papers: Paper 1 (Principles of International Tax) and two option papers from a range of jurisdictional and specialist modules.
Holding ADIT, or a standalone certificate in an individual module, demonstrates a level of technical depth that goes well beyond generalist tax training. It is recognised globally, and particularly valued by professionals working in transfer pricing, tax treaty work, and cross-border advisory.
