Web-Based Payroll Tax Seminars (Webinars)
The EDD's Employment Tax Offices offer no fee state payroll tax seminars, either classroom-style or Web-based (Webinars). Both the classroom seminars and Webinars are designed to help employers comply with the State of California payroll tax laws. The classroom seminars are offered in a variety of locations throughout California. They are customized to benefit everyone - established businesses, those just getting started, individuals anticipating going into business, and payroll agents - and the instructors encourage audience participation. The Webinars, on the other hand, allow you to learn on your timetable, at your own pace, wherever you choose to access the Internet.
