Teaching Methodology

An innovative tax programme

Fiscal concerns are constantly evolving and increasingly taking into account issues of fairness and sustainability. The Executive Master in Tax Management has always been able to adapt and evolve to meet current and future needs, such as creating courses on ESG, compliance, and CSR challenges. This dynamic approach is inherent to the program's DNA, as it remains attentive to the future challenges of taxation.

The Executive Master in Tax Management spans over 2 years and goes beyond a "vertical" division of the subject matter (direct taxes, VAT, other indirect taxes...). Instead, it takes a transversal approach to the profession, offering a more comprehensive and practical understanding of the situations you encounter.

 

Additionally, the programme allows you to specialise in three tax domains through certifications.

Many courses offer comprehensive overviews of tax disciplines related to specific sectors of the economy, such as estate planning, banking taxation, and real estate. Some courses focus on advanced finance techniques that cover all taxes associated with these activities.

 

Several courses are conducted in the form of seminars, utilising the renowned case method, which encourages active student participation and provides a direct application of acquired skills.

"Taxation is a global and crucial issue. Join a vibrant community of dynamic professionals in all areas of taxation."
