Prepare for the EA and ATP Exams in Minneapolis

EA Exam Review Course & ATP Review Course/Exam August 20^th - 22^nd

NSA’s Enrolled Agent Exam Review Course will be held at the Downtown Marriot in Minneapolis, MN, prior to the National Society of Accountants’ Annual Convention. This review is a comprehensive and intensive—and we mean intensive—course geared toward a single purpose: to help you master tax basics and pass the EA exam.

Detailed study notes will be provided for each topic, including figures and charts that prove the old adage that “…a picture is worth a thousand words.” Hundreds of past exam questions from the open-exam era and many more potential questions on newer topics are incorporated and each is reviewed in class so the real exam itself will look like an old friend. Study tips, tricks and shortcuts are a staple of this course.

Earn the Accredited Tax Preparer (ATP) Credential:

The Accredited Tax Preparer (ATP) designation, offered by the Accreditation Council for Accountancy and Taxation (ACAT), is also a leading national credential for tax practitioners who have a thorough knowledge of the existing tax code and the preparation of individual tax returns with an expertise in comprehensive 1040 issues including supporting schedules, self-employed returns, and ethics.

Earning the ATP credential exempts practitioners from taking and passing an Annual Federal Tax Refresher course and exam each year for the the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP).

The Accredited Tax Preparer exam is offered by the Accreditation Council for Accountancy and Taxation (ACAT), established in 1973 as a non-profit independent testing, accrediting and monitoring organization. Learn More
