2014-2015 Training
Courses and Workshops
Promoting Policy Dialogue and
Training of Tax Officials in the Africa
Region
Course Programme
The aim of the program is to create a unique space for
real-world discussion to improve the capacity of tax
administrations to deal with cross-border tax issues,
and to provide a tax environment which is conducive
to investment. Whereas, many other training programs
that are offered to the government officials tend to
be purely instructive, this program includes a private
sector-business dimension, and is therefore more
practical.
This four-day training course is intended to help tax
officials to:
