Curriculum
The Master tackles in-depth the knowledge needed to be a company tax advisor.
The content is structured into a first introductory part on accounting matters, law, and new technologies (12 ECTS credits) where the basic notions are worked in order to face the subsequent subjects that go in detail into the specific matter of business taxation (basic and advanced) and the subject of international taxation (40 ECTS credits). The last part of the course is essentially practical. Groups of students will work on the resolution of real practices.
In parallel to the teaching, the Master's Final Project is developed (8 ECTS credits), a practical project in the format of a professional written opinion which should include the knowledge studied during the course.

The Master in Tax Consulting is developed during the academic year in an essentially practical way. The contents are demonstrated and applied and all the taxes that make up our tax system are analysed in detail.
The objective is to reconcile theoretical knowledge with professional practice, collecting the plurality of issues and casuistry that arise in daily practice, allowing the systematic study of the set of taxes that make up our tax system.

Theoretical-practical sessions
The class sessions combine the theoretical demonstration with the approach, discussion, and resolution of practical cases taken from real experience.
02.
Active participation
Faced with the practical assumptions raised (practical cases, inspection reports, and regularization proposals), students will have to propose a solution they find most appropriate, applying the knowledge acquired in the master.
03.
Access to AEDAF Databases
During the academic period, the students of the Master in Tax Consultancy have the right to access the private part of the website of the Spanish Association of Tax Consultants (AEDAF), in order to be able to consult the different databases.

Tools

In this modality, two stable subgroups are opened that will coexist throughout the course: one face-to-face and the other with 100% remote students. The remote students (a maximum of 15 places per course) will follow the program in a synchronous way with the face-to-face students. That is, they will share the same school calendar and schedule as the face-to-face students.
Project-oriented learning and the combination of lectures and active methodologies such as case studies, flipped learning, solving real problems, and professional simulations allow the student to connect theory and practice, acquire advanced skills, and achieve learning which is transferable to the job. The face-to-face modality is enriched with elements of online programs (virtual learning environment, multimedia resources, among others) so that the learning experience of the two subgroups is equally satisfactory.
You will have:
- Master's or postgraduate work to learn by doing
- A personal mentor to monitor your Master's Final Project (TFM) or Postgraduate Final Project (TFP)
- Digital resources to achieve transversal skills
- Interdisciplinary activities and workshops
- Digital resources and audiovisual blocks for online learning
