Overview:

2009 marks the 56th anniversary of the Institute on Taxation, offered by the University at Buffalo School of Management. The Institute was cooperatively founded in 1954 by the University at Buffalo and the New York Society of Certified Public Accountants. The co-founders were later joined by the Bar Association of Erie County, now known as the Erie Institute of Law, in the development of the Institute of Federal Taxation as a means of reviewing and clarifying provisions and patterns of federal tax laws.

In recent years, state tax laws have also been reviewed causing the organizers to change the name to the Institute on Taxation. The professional quality, however, remains the same today as it was 56 years ago and the Institute continues to provide tax practitioners with cutting edge information regarding the substance and administration of tax laws.
