ADGM Academy: 21 January 2026
ADGM Academy, in collaboration with STI Taxand and World Tax Lawyers (WTL), has announced the launch of the Pillar Two Award Programme, a specialised professional training initiative centred on the UK Chartered Institute of Taxation’s (CIOT) Pillar Two Award Certificate.
The programme is a standalone offering derived from the globally recognised Advanced Diploma in International Taxation (ADIT) and is designed to equip tax professionals with the technical expertise and practical skills required to navigate the OECD’s Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) Rules. It supports participants in developing both conceptual understanding and applied competence, enabling them to confidently implement Pillar Two requirements in multinational environments and prepare for the June 2026 examination.
Delivered through a structured, syllabus-driven, and practice-oriented approach, the programme focuses on the real-world application of global minimum tax rules, addressing one of the most significant transformations in international taxation.
- Comprehensive coverage of the ADIT Pillar Two Award syllabus and eligibility to sit the relevant examination
- Eight live online teaching sessions complemented by two hybrid (in-person and online) revision courses
- Expert-led instruction delivered by leading international tax practitioners
- Certificate of attendance awarded upon successful completion
