FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PHOENIX, July 6, 2023 — Earmark, the only free, podcast-based continuing professional education provider for accountants, is thrilled to announce its first society partnership with the Maryland Society of Accounting and Tax Professionals (MSATP). Effective July 6, 2023, this strategic collaboration offers an enhanced Unlimited Subscription as a benefit to all MSATP members, adding significant value to their memberships.

Earmark’s Unlimited Subscription includes unlimited free CPE courses each week, an ad-free experience in the app, and the ability to opt out of sponsor messages during registration for sponsored courses. Designed for professionals from small firms, the subscription aligns seamlessly with Earmark’s and MSATP’s shared vision of high-quality, affordable, and accessible education.

MSATP’s professionals, including CPAs, CMAs, and EAs, can now conveniently satisfy all or most of their continuing education needs by listening to podcasts. One anticipated standout is the Federal Tax Updates podcast exclusive to Earmark, providing biweekly federal tax news and analysis.

MSATP members can unlock their Unlimited Subscription simply by registering for Earmark using the same email linked to their MSATP account. Should they encounter any issues, assistance is readily available at support@earmarkcpe.com.
