Prerequisite: ACC 3350 and permission of the instructor. VITA is an IRS program to provide tax preparation services to low-income and elderly taxpayers.

Currently, the IRS training consists of learning tax preparation software as well as passing two on-line tax knowledge exams. This experiential learning class closely simulates real world experience of working with tax clients. Students must commit to working one night a week during the tax season, which runs from late January to April 15.
