This master’s level course examines many of the tax issues, problems, and planning opportunities professional accountants encounter in providing tax services to taxpayers. This is the third of a three-course sequence of taxation courses in the MMPA Program. It is, therefore, expected that participants have a good knowledge of the concepts of Canadian Taxation from successfully completing MGT2206H and MGT2207H, Canadian Income Taxation I and II.

This course is designed to update, expand and integrate the knowledge and skills gained in the previous two courses. By the end of the three-course sequence, it is anticipated that students will be proficient at recognizing tax issues in business situations, developing and analyzing alternatives, locating the proper tax references to resolve issues and answer questions, and communicating their conclusion.

The three tax course sequence has been designed to provide participants with coverage of the competencies for taxation for the CFE.
