Revised CPEMaterials Site

Posted in Uncategorized at 11:22 am by Ed Zollars, CPA

I’m moving the old CPE Materials site to a WordPress blog.  It should make it easier to add data and other information, plus give attendees an easier to remember address to get materials.

For now there’s not much here.  My main podcast page is still at http://www.edzollarstaxupdate.com and will remain there (changing that would break the feed).
