How it works
For five mornings, you’re in sessions led by instructors who know the material because they practice it. Tax, accounting, ethics and more. You’ll go in-depth on every topic in every session.
Better learning doesn’t happen with more time spent in a chair. It’s getting the right material, clearly, with room to ask the questions that actually come up in practice.
After lunch, your afternoons are yours. That’s by design. Go Golf, hit the pool, or explore the city. It’s your time. Nobody is pulling you back into a ballroom after 1:30 PM.

Some attendees have been coming for a decade. They book early because the rooms go, and because they already know what the week feels like.

Learning Themes
Our 2026 conferences run across learning themes tied to the work you do for clients, not broad survey categories. Core content is always there. Tracks in specific industries and specialties let you go where the material matters most. Not every theme runs at every location.
