What is a Certified Tax Strategist?

what is a tax coach

The tax training required to become a Certified Tax Strategist (CTS) extends beyond what a typical a Certified Public Accountant or Enrolled Agent receives in order to get their credentials. Certified Tax Strategists are educated by The American Institute of Certified Tax Coaches (AICTC) in advanced tax planning strategies that are proactive rather than reactive. Their training is not just about compliance but is focused around uncovering tax deductions and loopholes that most tax professionals don't know how to find. Their special skill set is especially effective in reducing taxes for successful small business owners, entrepreneurs, and high net worth individuals.

About The AICTC

The AICTC is an independent and not-for-profit corporation whose primary focus is educating financial professionals in tax reduction techniques that help business owners keep more of what they earn. Certified Tax Strategists are required to complete continuing education each year in order to maintain their certification and the organization maintains a Code of Ethics to ensure the highest standards of integrity among its members.

About the Certified Tax Strategist (CTS) Designation

The requirements to achieve the Certified Tax Strategist designation include a comprehensive three-day training academy. This intensive seminar produces tax professionals that are qualified to provide superior tax planning services and are dedicated to outstanding customer satisfaction. Only the most experienced Certified Tax Coaches who have undergone additional training and who have used proactive tax planning to save their clients a significant amount of tax qualify for the Certified Tax Strategist designation.
