Tax Courses
Fresh Start Tax Academy is geared towards ensuring that each of our students will come out with the most empowering knowledge, so that they will be equipped to handle all levels of clientele. The best aspect about this academy is that you will have the tools to structure your business, marketing, and much more by reading our newly updated book written by Dr. Eukeethia B. titled, "Ready, Set, Go". The book is included with the purchase of the course.
We also believe in collaboration. With that being said, we have partnered with some of the best professionals in the industry to bring you several levels of information!
There will be chances to learn how to add additional revenue as well, which won't leave you solely relying on tax preparation!
There are some Service Bureaus who just don't have the time to train their Partners, which should not stop them from expanding their business. With that being said, Fresh Start now offers Partner Training for other Service Bureaus!
Everyone will have access to a Self-Paced training which includes a Live Q&A session with Dr. Eukeethia B. & Guests weekly, Workbooks, Basic & Advanced Tax Preparation Training (depending on the package that you select).
