Addressing immediate tax risks
Navigating new regulations
Organisations need to ensure that people across their businesses understand any new regulations and are able to react and prepare effectively.
With our range of technical courses on Learning Lab, PwC provides leading training and guidance to interpret legislation and its impact on your organisation.
Our technology will give your people the training they need to stay on top of new tax rules and regulations. The analytics embedded into the platform and the reporting functionality will give you confidence that your people have been equipped with the knowledge they need.
Developing in-depth expertise
Taking on new areas of expertise
Many tax teams are required to develop new skills and knowledge as technical changes emerge, business activities develop or internal roles and responsibilities change.
We recognise the challenge for our clients to upskill quickly and effectively in order to react to these changes. We have developed a suite of advanced tax courses aimed at specialist tax practitioners to help your team develop in-depth knowledge and expertise.
Getting new staff up to speed
New joiners
We recognise the challenge that tax teams face in developing clear and structured learning and development plans for new technical staff. This is even more challenging when face to face learning is not possible.
Our suite of foundation level courses across tax areas and specialisms can provide your staff with the right level of expertise to start their careers.
Building expertise throughout your business
Upskilling non-tax staff
It is becoming increasingly important for business decisions to be made with tax in mind. More non-tax staff need to understand key tax rules and to identify opportunities and risks earlier in the business decision process.
Our tax courses can be rolled out across your business to make sure that relevant non-tax staff have the necessary knowledge to carry out their roles effectively.
Our foundation level courses can assist finance and accounting staff in performing key tax and accounting functions, while our suite of tax risk management training can ensure business teams identify relevant tax risks and raise them with you.
