Recorded 26 February 2026

Tax & Business Services Basics tests your team’s knowledge in an online, workshop style training environment. This is active learning where participants work through real client issues.

Cut down the review time spent on errors and help your team think for themselves, dig deeper, and ask the right questions.

Often team members are not confident to ask the questions that really count - or worse, they are simply unaware of the gaps in their knowledge. This workshop aims to change that.

A Note to Managers...
Tax & Business Services Basics is designed to show your team why technical skills will only take them part of the way. We demonstrate why a job does not start and end with just their technical knowledge.

At each stage we’ll show your team how to avoid bad habits and do it the ‘right way’:

How to make sure that nothing is missed
Why they can’t always rely solely on what the client tells them
Avoiding the spread of bad habits among team members
Giving your team the confidence to challenge the way things have always been done
Using a checklist as best practice and to assist you with an ATO audit
Teaching your team how to resolve an issue
Why clear and precise workpapers are so important

Then, join us for the nest stage, Tax & Business Services series, Tax & Business Services Intermediate.
