“I believe that the Blue Course is indispensable for everyone who works as a tax analyst. Wide and varied concepts are covered, double tax relief, interpretation of tax treaties and many others are good examples; showing how valuable this Blue Course is. The classes are well structured, being alternated with theory, practical content and the case studies. Beyond that I can assure that Mr Shelton is very clear and always available to discuss and solve any queries and doubts.” Henrique Cesar Tupper, Economist Consultant of Tax Planning Department of E&P, Petrobras Petroleo Brasilieiro S.A, Brazil
“I attended the Blue course in Cyprus. I learned how Double Tax Treaties are legally utilized by taxpayers. I used what I have learned to improve the content of a course on OECD Model that will be presented by Greek Government officials to tax assessors in Cyprus. I found the Blue Course to be well structured, very informative and very well delivered by Mr. Ned Shelton and look forward to attending future Sheltons-SITTI courses in Cyprus.” Athina Stephanou, Senior Principle Assessor , Ministry of Finance – Inland Revenue Dept., Cyprus
“For a tax specialist working in Brazil; Sheltons courses are a must! This statement is based on the fact that any international taxation course within the country is focused on the consequences of domestic tax legislation on international transactions, not on single concepts of international taxation. Moreover, it is also a great opportunity to be more familiar with OECD models and concepts, since Brazil is not an OECD member and, thus, we tend not to give the necessary attention to it’s important and influential definitions on international taxation.” Felipe Gamboa Alves da Costa, Direct Taxes Consultant, Shell Brasil Ltda., Brazil
“The entire course is of great value and absolutely recommendable. I really appreciate Mr. Shelton for lecturing the very “fundementals” of international taxation at an understandable level and sharing his rich tax experiences. Moreover, as a translator myself, working with such a renowned tax expert was such a thrill.” Jeeyeon, Tax Dept, Translator, Government National Tax Service, Korea
“This Sheltons-SITTI Blue Course was more than I expected. It was a great opportunity to be introduced to International taxation. We don’t have anything like it in Brazil!” Andrea Vitor Santos , Tax Manager , Alpargatas, Brazil
“An International tax course requires great knowledge and expertise. I’m glad that I have found it in this Sheltons-SITTI Blue Course, as well as Ned Shelton’s great ability as a speaker and a teacher.” Marcelo Tertuliano, Tax Manager, Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, Brazil
