It will also be of practical use to entrepreneurs and owners of SMEs who want to meet their tax obligations in an efficient and consistent manner. Delivered over two days\, this course simplifies concepts into a structured approach that enables the participants to apply the learned concepts immediately within their work environments. The session also provides ample time for sharing knowledge\, learning from each other\, and seeking clarification on emerging issues in tax administration. \nBy the end of the programme\, participants will have developed their competence in preparing and filing various tax returns\, reconciling records\, interpreting relevant legislation\, and aligning their processes with best practice.
