Beginning September 17, 2024, Becker officially expands its education solutions for tax practitioners by offering continuing education and exam prep specifically for Enrolled Agents.
“Tax talent is in high demand, and accounting firms are hiring more non-CPA roles to support clients facing IRS enforcement. Enrolled Agents, who have earned the privilege of representing taxpayers before the IRS, are becoming a more appealing option for professionals and deserve educational support to maintain their knowledge and credentials. Now is the perfect time to launch our learning journey for the Enrolled Agent (EA) designation,” said Ed Clark, President of Becker, a Colibri Group company.
Becker's education for EAs includes Becker's EA Exam Review course to help students pass all three parts of the Special Enrollment Examination (SEE). We now also offer an EA Continuing Education (CE) subscription to help EAs maintain their license and remain aware of changes and updates to the tax code and tax laws.
Becker's EA Exam Review
Like our CPA Exam Review and CMA Exam Review, Becker's EA Exam Review will include the resources, materials, and support you need to pass the EA Exam. This includes:
- Three comprehensive digital textbooks
- Concept videos to walk you through specific topics
- Tax form videos
- Digital flashcards
- Thousands of practice questions with detailed explanations of the answers
- Simulated exams that mirror the real thing
The course also includes a customizable study planner that breaks down how many weeks of preparation you have before your scheduled exam date and how many hours per week you want to devote to studying. Pre-order begins on October 15, 2024 and will be live on November 12, 2024.
