Federal Continuing Education for Tax Professionals
The University of Illinois Tax School provides high-quality, practical federal continuing education and CPE credit for CPAs, EAs, and tax preparers. Every year, thousands of tax professionals nationwide rely on our expert instruction to stay current, confident, and ready for the challenges of filing season and beyond.
A School Built for Working Tax Professionals
Tax School understands the demands of tax practice — long hours, tight deadlines, and constant change. That’s why our federal tax continuing education is designed to fit your schedule, not the other way around.
Through live online events, on-demand access to recorded sessions, and flexible event formats, you can earn CPE credit while staying current on the federal tax issues that matter most to your clients.
Tax Education by Tax Professionals
Tax School events are taught by experienced tax professionals who work with federal tax law every day. Our instructors bring practical insight from public accounting, law, government, and private practice — not just theory.
That real-world perspective is built into everything we offer, from Fall Tax School to webinars to the Federal Tax Workbook, helping you apply complex rules with confidence.
Education That Works at Every Level of Tax Practice
For Individual Tax Professionals
Tax School supports CPAs, EAs, and tax preparers with practical federal tax education focused on real client work. Our programs emphasize clear explanations, timely updates, and application — helping you stay current and confident throughout the year, not just during filing season.

Focused on Continuing Education
for Tax Professionals
Tax School provides federal tax continuing education for CPAs, EAs, and tax preparers who are actively working in the profession. Our programs focus on earning required CPE credits and staying current on federal tax law as it changes year to year.
While Tax School does not teach individuals how to enter the tax profession, our education supports tax professionals at every stage of their career — from those newer to practice to those with decades of experience — by delivering practical, timely instruction they can apply to real client work.
