Permanent Education

Tax professionals need to keep up-to-date with developments in their specialised field and so normally have to complete permanent education (PE). The number of PE hours required depends on the professional organisation you belong to. If you participate in an EFS programme, you will receive a certificate that you can use to register points through your professional organisation.
