Education

Education for our Clients

At JAK we are committed to educating our clients and providing resources for learning. One way we do this is by offering various educational opportunities throughout the year.

Get perspective from seasoned CPAs.

Sometimes a tax law development may require you to significantly change the way you do business. To help you understand how your business may be impacted, we can present a private educational seminar for you and your staff. For more information or to schedule a seminar, call our office at 651-641-1099.

JAK Webinars

As individual and business consultants, we have a network of professionals and advisers, both internal and external, to provide education in several areas. You must register for each webinar in advance in order to receive the webinar link.  Please call 651-641-1099 with any questions.

I have worked with John A. Knutson & Co., PLLP for over 40 years. This included three partners who have retired and four additional accountants who became partners and numerous staff accountants. All of the partners and accountants have been extremely helpful to the organization I represented. JAK conducted audits, answered questions and researched questions/problems that were needed to best serve our firm in the construction industry. JAK’s work was and continues to be detailed and accurate. They guided our firm through two IRS audits which were completed in a timely fashion and with no penalties or other consequences. I would highly recommend their services. Their staff is competent, friendly and blends in easily to office surroundings as needed. I was particularly impressed with JAK’s recent assistance with PPL Funding and Covid-19 protocols and implementation.
