Tax Preparation Certification & Community Engagement
Academic Noncredit

This class gives students the opportunity of participating in a national program to help individuals and families prepare their income taxes, called Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA). Students will devote the first weeks in the semester to gaining knowledge and the skills necessary for IRS certification. The remainder of the semester will be assigned to putting that certification to work by engaging in tax preparation and directing clients to other resources in the community to assist with financial well-being.

This noncredit class meets with a regular University of Utah credit course.
