Tax Administration and Policy Frameworks

Course Overview

The “Tax Administration and Policy Frameworks” training course, offered by Pideya Learning Academy, is a meticulously crafted program aimed at providing professionals with the expertise needed to effectively manage tax systems and policy structures. As globalization continues to reshape economies, tax frameworks have become increasingly complex, requiring professionals to stay ahead of evolving compliance requirements, regulatory standards, and innovative taxation trends. This course is designed to meet these demands, equipping participants with actionable knowledge and insights to excel in the field.

Taxation is the backbone of public revenue, accounting for over 70% of government income worldwide, according to the latest reports by global financial institutions. Despite its critical role, inefficiencies in tax collection and administration cost economies billions annually. For instance, a recent OECD study estimated that tax gaps—defined as the difference between taxes owed and collected—range between 2-8% of GDP in many countries. This highlights the pressing need for effective tax administration systems and policies, which this training addresses comprehensively.
