These sessions will be held the afternoon before several of our upcoming Regional State Tax Meetings.  The sessions will feature presentations by both COST staff, practitioner firms sponsoring, and the company hosting the Regional Meeting. The targeted attendees are tax professionals just starting their SALT careers, individuals with a basic level of state and local tax experience as well as experienced SALT professionals who would like a refresher.
