Learn from an Industry Professional
The ITP Income Tax Course is designed and developed by Scott Bailey, Senior Director and Head of Tax Accounting at ITP Accounting Professionals. All course materials are created and regularly updated by Scott to reflect the latest Australian tax laws and regulations, ensuring the content remains current in this fast-paced and complex industry.
Drawing on his extensive real world experience advising franchisees, individuals, and small business clients, Scott breaks down complex tax rules into clear, practical, and easy-to-understand learning modules. The course content focuses on applying legislation in real life scenarios to help learners understand compliance requirements, reduce tax obligations, and improve financial outcomes, all underpinned by Scott’s core values of honesty, integrity, and transparency.
Please note: While the course content is developed by an industry professional, the course itself is not taught live by an instructor. Questions can be asked throughout the course through the learning platform and Scott will provide answers and guidance to each individual’s tax questions.
