Tax Training, Designed Around Your Team

No two tax teams are the same, so no two of our training programmes are either. We work with accountancy firms, law firms, in-house tax teams and multinationals to design bespoke tax training built around your people, your clients and your business.

Please get in touch to discuss your team's needs.

The most impressive part of the training for me was the mix of theory and first-hand experience — covering Practice, Industry and Tax Authority points of view. I couldn’t recommend the services of ExtraTax Training highly enough.

What we deliver

Bespoke programmes across corporate tax, international tax, transfer pricing and beyond.

Corporate Tax Training

UK and Irish corporate tax, from corporation tax fundamentals and rolling Lunch & Learn updates to specialist programmes on areas like the Corporate Interest Restriction and loan relationships. Tiered by experience level, so juniors, seniors and managers each get the depth they need, whether in practice or in-house.

International Tax Training

Tax treaties, residence, permanent establishment, withholding taxes, CFCs and cross-border issues, from first foundations for your team to pan-European programmes and conferences. Our work with Grant Thornton grew from training one office into designing a European tax conference for the whole network.

Transfer Pricing Training

From Transfer Pricing 101 for your finance team to a practical Fundamentals of Transfer Pricing programme for new graduates, we bring TP concepts to life. We also design bespoke ADIT Transfer Pricing courses for your cohort, and advanced TP training on specialist topics such as intangibles and dispute resolution.

Graduate Programmes

Programmes that turn capable graduates into confident tax professionals, covering technical foundations, legislative research and client communication. We also teach the Advanced Taxation module on the Masters year of Queen's University Belfast's MAcc programme.

CTA Exam Support

Tailored small-group support for your CTA trainees, working alongside their main course provider. Regular sessions, individual homework feedback, mocks and one-to-one reviews, with personal encouragement throughout, keep your people on track to pass.

Specialist Courses & Events

Public courses open to individual bookings, built around specialist expertise. Our flagship is the intensive three-day Introduction to US International Corporate Taxation, taught by Narelle MacKenzie, with participants from advisory firms, in-house teams and tax authorities.

Who we work with

Accountancy and law firms

A cost-effective way to develop your tax team, from graduate programmes through to specialist training for experienced staff, while your partners and directors stay focused on clients.

In-house tax teams

Our team has held in-house roles and understands the work. You know the value of tailored training for your team and the wider business; we design and deliver it, so it happens without consuming your own time.

Finance teams

Practical training in the taxes that land on a CFO's desk, from payroll taxes and VAT to customs, corporate tax and transfer pricing, so your team can handle the day-to-day with confidence and know when to call the advisers.

How we work with you

We don't arrive with a fixed syllabus. Every engagement starts with a conversation about your team and your business.

Understand

Your people, their experience levels, the work they actually do, and where you want them to be in the years ahead.

Design

A programme built around those needs, covering the right topics at the right depth, refined with your input.

Deliver

Online, in person or a mix of both, scheduled around your calendar. Exercise-led sessions using scenarios your team will recognise.

Refine

Your feedback shapes the programme as it runs, and we adjust content and pace year on year. What we learn with each cohort improves the next.

Why choose ExtraTax Training

Designed around you

Your team's experience, the work they do, where you want them to be. We build the training around all three.

Diverse perspectives

Our team has worked in practice, in-house and for tax authorities. Your team learns from people who have done the work.

Training your team will use

Every programme starts from one question. What should your team be able to do? The design works back from your answer.

Lasting relationships

Clients come back year after year. Programmes that began with a single course have grown across offices, countries and years.
