We will again host a series of telephone trainings for volunteers in 2009. The dates for these trainigs will from December 8th through January 7th on Tuesday and Thursday nights at 7pm, taking the nights of December 24th and December 31st off.

Online Course
The IRS has an online course called Link & Learn. The new IRS course for 2009 is now available. There are three levels - basic, intermediate and advanced as well as other topics such as military and international. There are exams following each level. Volunteers are required to pass the intermediate exam in order to prepare taxes, however some volunteers go on to pass advanced.
