Walsh Tax Continuing Education Program

Walsh has been preparing master’s level tax professionals since 1974 and we understand how to deliver an engaging, high-quality learning experience that will add practical knowledge and applicable skills to your toolbox. The Walsh Tax CE courses offer rigorous, high-quality curriculum taught by experienced tax professionals with years of real-world experience in individual taxation, entity taxation, accounting for income taxes, and tax compliance.

Please see the 2025 CE Calendar below.

Please direct any questions about the courses to Erik VanDyck, Vice President, Business Development & Corporate Engagement – [email protected].

Yes, we would be pleased to discuss providing customized “bootcamp style” training for your employees. We view custom training as tax training that could be accomplished within a condensed time frame and which could be done at your place of business if you wish.

With career and other life priorities, we understand you have a full plate. Therefore, Walsh Tax CE courses are designed to be convenient, practical, and immediately applicable. The courses are delivered in a remote synchronous setting via Zoom and you will be attending the same courses as those offered in our nationally recognized Master of Science in Taxation (MST) with some modifications to accommodate the CE student. Most class sessions are offered weekly from 6pm to 8:30pm (in 8 or 9 sessions depending on the class) over a 10-week period.

Walsh students are encouraged to connect with their instructors and each other. If you have a question you’d like to discuss with your professor one-on-one, they welcome the opportunity to connect with and mentor students individually.

Yes. Although review of the out of class asynchronous learning resources and assignments are not required of the CE student, you will have access to all class materials that your MST degree student classmates have.

Yes. Walsh’s CE courses give you the opportunity to earn a minimum of 20 CPE credits dependent on the participants’ class attendance and satisfactory course completion. At the completion of the course you will be provided with a letter from Walsh containing the course name and number, the number of classroom hours attended, and the date of satisfactory course completion.

Each professor has the ability to define satisfactory course completion, but generally speaking, there will be a short quiz given at the conclusion of each live classroom session. In the event you do not receive a passing score on the quiz, you will be given the opportunity to replace the quiz score by completing an assignment related to that week’s material.

Walsh CPE courses cost $1,000 per course (books and course materials not included).

It is our intent to record the live Zoom sessions. However, please be reminded that the Michigan rules provide that CPE credit can only be provided for class attendance at the live, synchronous class sessions.

After your second CE class there will be an opportunity to convert the two CE classes you have already taken to the equivalent of one MST class, giving you the ability to complete the MST program with one less class than would normally be required.

“As a graduate of the Walsh MST program, I think having an opportunity for a focused, complete educational opportunity that qualifies for CPE is a great option. This is especially true in the fast-paced, virtually connected world we now live in.”
