Study the DITT

All the tuition is online and on demand. There is no in person tuition.

The Diploma consists of three core stages:

  1. The first four modules are designed to acquaint and/or refresh candidates with the current tax landscape
  2. The next modules, 5 to 8, underpin the course
  3. Lastly are the Making Tax Digital (MTD) modules, the syllabus for which is designed to reflect the application of what has been learnt in the earlier modules, and existing professional tax knowledge. 

You must study the modules in sequence and pass each module assessment before you progress to the next. There is no assessment for Module 1 as it is an introductory module.
