Tax Foundation University is a free lecture series designed to equip congressional staffers with valuable and timely insights on tax policy and economics. The three, one-hour sessions feature Tax Foundation experts explaining the essential components of the tax code and how to analyze tax policy like a tax economist. This year, as the upcoming Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expirations take center stage, our lessons feature timely tax provisions and how students should apply the principles ofsound tax policy.

Upon satisfying the course requirements, students will receive a certification of completion from the Tax Foundation. To earn the certificate, students must attend at least two of the three lectures and earn a passing grade for each course assessment. We will provide a copy of the certificate at graduation after our final class, and you will receive an electronic copy that can be added to your LinkedIn profile. If you would like to learn more about the course materials, see the recordings from Tax Foundation University 2024.
