IFS DipFA Coursework (Due 30\/01\/15)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some<\/strong> pointers\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

The IFS Coursework consists mainly of a 4,000 word essay.\u00a0 The essay is marked according to QCF level 4 relevant academic standards (equivalent to the first year of a degree course).\u00a0 As part of this, a bibliography meeting the required academic format is mandatory.\u00a0 There are also three additional short questions on other topics.<\/p>\n

The Coursework due for the end of January 2015\u00a0focuses on employee benefits.\u00a0 You are writing a briefing for a company that is considering introducing more employee benefits.<\/p>\n

Your essay could consider what such benefits are, the pros and cons of such benefits, and the tax treatment of such.<\/p>\n

In preparation for one of our courses, the IFS Study Folders contain an excellent starting point for research on why and how the UK taxation regime operates, plus technical guidance and knowledge around specific potential benefits.\u00a0 Further reading and research is also required as part of this assignment.<\/p>\n

It is essential for students to understand the referencing and bibliography requirements, and focus on a solid and thought-out structure.<\/p>\n

Further support can be found by booking attendance at the\u00a0Lewis Davis Course on 5th December in Central London; or via the\u00a0Futuretrend Distance Learning\u00a0Course<\/a>.<\/p>\n
