Overview

SPEAKER: RUSSELL COCKBURN

HMRC is increasingly interested in the tax affairs and compliance issues which are relevant for employers and their inward and outward bound expatriate employees. Payroll managers dealing with movements of such employees face an increasingly rigorous compliance environment as HMRC identifies risk of tax leakage and non-compliance in the increasingly complex world of mobile workers. As movement of labour on the international markets becomes an ever more commonplace event this course provides an opportunity for those dealing with these issues to review their knowledge of the practical tax matters to be dealt with on the PAYE affairs of such employees.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
