Programs and Schools
Programs, Education, and Designations
As a member-run organization, our educational offerings are created, developed, and administered by those who know the subject best, other IPT members. The organization offers schools that cover specific state and local tax disciplines, including property tax, sales & use tax, state income tax, value added tax, and credits & incentives. To create a more comprehensive learning experience, we also host an annual conference, yearly discipline-specific symposiums, industry-focused seminars, and webinars. We carefully craft each program to meet our members’ needs. IPT’s highly regarded CMI designation is the most widely respected SALT achievement available for those specializing in sales & use, property, or state business income taxation, and the CCIP designation is the first to recognize excellence for those working in the credits & incentives field.
IPT Cancellation Fee Policy for Schools and Programs
Any registrant of an IPT school or program, i.e., symposium or annual conference, will be assessed a $200 cancellation fee if canceling a paid registration prior to two weeks before the commencement of that school or program. This fee will be deducted from any refund due the registrant. If canceling a registration less than two weeks before the start of a school or program, registrant will forgo the full registration fee and will not be entitled to any refund.
For the 2026 Annual Conference, the cancellation fee is $295 before January 31, 2026 and $395 after this date. Any cancellation after May 22, 2026 will result in full forfeiture of the registration fee.
