The Illinois Metro East Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) is collaborating again this year with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to offer a Tax Symposium from 8 a.m.-4:45 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 19. The continuous education credit (CEU) opportunity is designed for certified public accountants and bookkeepers to receive updated tax information.
The IRS Tax Symposium in SIUE’s Morris University Center Meridian Ballroom offers seven CEU credits and covers various topics: criminal investigations; exam; new collections; taxpayer advocate; Tax Cuts & Job Act (TCJA) topics; Illinois Department of Revenue (IDOR) and more.
“This is an opportunity CPAs and tax preparers will not want to miss,” said Jo Ann DiMaggio May, SBDC director and small business specialist. “Accounting Associations and CPA related organizations are encouraged to invite their members, as well as other business-building and networking organizations.”
The $90 cost includes parking, continental breakfast, lunch and snacks. For details and registration, visit commerce.cashnet.com/siuebus. Check-in begins at 7:30 a.m. on Sept. 19.

It is a no-cost service to the community supported by the U.S. Small Business Administration, Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, and SIUE.
