Diploma in Tax Technology Bursaries

The future of tax is digital, and training is essential to ensure tax professionals keep pace with technological advancements. The Diploma in Tax Technology (DITT) provides a solid foundation in tax technology so you can stay relevant and access new opportunities in an evolving tax landscape.

For the second year running, we are delighted to offer bursaries to CIOT and ATT members who are eligible and would like to study the DITT.
