EVENT DESCRIPTION
Maryland rules. Maryland issues. Practical education for Maryland professionals.
The Maryland Tax Practitioner Education Series is a year-round, on-demand CPE program designed to help accounting and tax professionals stay informed on the Maryland-specific laws, regulations, compliance requirements, and emerging issues that affect their practices and their clients.
Beginning September 15, 2026, MSATP will launch the series with two on-demand courses:
Maryland Individual Income Tax Fundamentals
Build a stronger foundation in Maryland individual income tax requirements, filing considerations, and common compliance issues practitioners encounter when serving Maryland taxpayers.
FAMLI Countdown: Getting Clients Ready for January 2027
Prepare for the implementation of Maryland's Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program and understand the steps employers should be taking now ahead of the January 2027 rollout.
After the September launch, one new course will be released on the 15th of each month and made available on demand through the MSATP Member Portal. No matter when you register you will gain access to all videos that were previously released.
The series is designed to provide practical, Maryland-focused education that practitioners can apply in their day-to-day work. Participants who complete the full series will have the opportunity to earn at least 12 hours of CPE.
Courses are approved for NASBA CPE and Maryland State tax preparer continuing education credit. IRS continuing education credit will not be awarded for this series.
To earn credit for each course, participants must watch the required course content and successfully complete the associated assessment with a score of 70% or higher.
