Unlimited Support

Receive help from your peers across the country.

You’ll find real-world expertise in our private online Certified Tax Coach community. Members engage in conversation, exchange information, gain support, and find the answers to even the toughest tax and practice development questions.

Case Study and Tax Research Assistance

The AICTC hosts a monthly virtual meeting called the Case Study Call-In. Here members are able to get assistance and answers with their most difficult tax planning cases. Tax research questions on a variety of topics are also covered, including topics related to individuals, corporations, partnerships, estate planning, real estate, and retirement planning. On the Case Study calls, you’ll be able to take advantage of having your A-Team of peers to collaborate with.

Being Part of Our Family

Part of joining the AICTP family is supporting each other and enjoying the journey you are on together. We offer quarterly virtual MEMBER MIXERS where you can just relax, have fun and share stories. You will receive quarterly Member Bulletins with helpful articles, member highlights and important dates to remember. It’s an immersive experience, as we help one another to reach your goals and celebrate your accomplishments.

Annual Tax Planning Summit & Reunion

Your learning continues every year at our Annual Tax Planning Summit and Reunion. Held in cities like New Orleans, Memphis, Chicago, Sundance, Boston and San Diego, come together with your peers to learn new tax saving strategies from our vetted experts. We find companies who can provide important niche expertise and support services for your tax plans to help implement the most sophisticated strategies for your clients.

A favorite event is our Tax Shark Tank, where members get to work on an actual tax plan for a local business and pitch their findings to the business owner “Sharks.” Getting feedback from an actual client can offer invaluable insights.

Be inspired in this supportive community and renew your enthusiasm as we celebrate all your successes at our Awards Gala. One of the best benefits of membership is learning how to have more time to enjoy life!
