TEI could not accomplish its work without its technical and advisory committees. These committees develop TEI’s positions on tax matters, plan the Institute’s education programs, and interact with tax officials at every level.
We would like to thank your 2024–2025 committee chairs for the work they have done for the Institute and congratulate our 2025–2026 committee chairs on their appointments. To get involved in TEI’s committee work, please contact the committee chairperson or the TEI membership department
