WASHINGTON -- The Internal Revenue Service announced today that registration  for the agency's 2024 Nationwide Tax Forum is now open, providing tax professionals the opportunity to attend special continuing education sessions this summer in five cities across the nation.   
     
For more than 30 years, the IRS Nationwide Tax Forum has provided a unique setting for the tax professional community to gather and learn about important developments. In 2023, nearly 12,000 tax professionals attended the program.   
     
The IRS-sponsored event offers continuing education and networking opportunities to enrolled agents, certified public accountants, attorneys and other tax professionals. Each forum is a three-day event with more than 40 seminars and workshops on a wide variety of federal and state tax issues presented by experts from the IRS and its partner associations. Attendees may earn up to 18 continuing education credits.   
     
In addition to learning about the latest developments in tax law and other issues affecting the tax community, attendees will also have a chance to meet in-person with IRS hiring experts. The IRS looks to hire talented people  in the tax community and other industries as the agency continues the historic transformation work under the Inflation Reduction Act.   
     
Each tax forum runs from Tuesday through Thursday, with special pre-event sessions taking place on the Monday afternoon before.   
     
 Featured cities: Chicago, Orlando, Baltimore, Dallas, San Diego    
     
The forum begins this year in Chicago and wraps up two months later in San Diego.
