Brampton, Ontario (March 8, 2007) – Robert Brakel & Associates (RBA ), North America’s leading choice for Canadian sales tax recovery and support, announced today the addition of four new web-based training modules to their comprehensive RBA Training™ program.
The new modules cover four important areas necessary to properly manage tax issues for companies doing business in Canada.

“The continued migration of learning modules to the web recognizes that our client base is continually expanding across North America,” said Garry Round, Managing Principal and Chief Operating Officer of Canadian Operations. “The new courses ensure that our clients outside of the greater Toronto area have access to RBA’s best-in-class sales tax training in a time frame that fits their busy schedules from anywhere in the U.S. or Canada.”
“The courses are renowned for their focus on timely, relevant issues that tax, finance and accounting professionals can act on right away,” said Round.
RBA will continue to provide on-site customized training for large North American clients with significant tax revenue implications. These sessions are developed by the firm’s Senior Tax Advisors and are customized to fit the specific needs of the client. These programs are provided for no additional fee to RBA clients.
