Online registration has now closed. For late registration contact Christine Brooks christine.brooks@unsw.edu.au
Conference Brochure and Final Programme is now available
Welcome to the Australasian Tax Teachers Association Conference 2010, “Changing Times – Changing Taxes?” 20 - 22 January 2010 at UNSW, Sydney, Australia. We look forward to welcoming you to UNSW.
Programme The conference program has been finalised, and can be accessed through the above link. We have a distinguished selection of keynote speakers:
The papers to be presented by other conference delegates have been grouped into four streams: Tax Policy, Tax Administration, Tax Technical and International and Comparative Issues. There is truly something for everyone!
We are particularly excited by the number of participants in the PhD workshop – we needed to expand into two streams to include all of the worthy applicants for the workshop.
We have also included opportunities for networking in the social programme, with the welcome function on Wednesday and the Cricket match on Friday, both on campus; and the conference dinner at the Sydney Marriott in Sydney on Thursday night. Families are welcome to the cricket match at no extra charge, although there is a charge for partners to attend the dinner.
Registrations On-line registrations will remain open until 13 January 2010. After this date, you will need to contact Christine Brooks directly christine.brooks@unsw.edu.au as a late registration.
If you plan to attend the PhD day, which has no registration fee, without attending the main conference please contact Christine directly.
