Our success in delivering world-class tax education is built on a strategic partnership. This collaboration brings together the expertise of A/T/L, Informa Connect Academy, and Middlesex University, ensuring that our courses are comprehensive, accessible, and accredited by a leading UK institution.
Our Triad partnership underpins how we deliver world-class tax education, combining the strengths of the Academy of Tax Law (AoTL), Informa Connect Academy, and Middlesex University (MDX). Informa leads marketing, enrolment, and learner support at scale, so AoTL can focus on designing and delivering specialist, practice-ready content that keeps pace with the profession. MDX validates the programmes, ensuring academic rigour, external examiner oversight, and UK-accredited qualifications with global recognition.
AoTL and Informa have collaborated for over a decade. In 2017 we added MDX to complete the model. By 2024, eleven AoTL courses were MDX-validated, and the partnership is recognised on the MDX website. In short, Informa drives reach and service, AoTL provides expert curriculum and delivery, and MDX safeguards standards and awards. Students benefit from coherent pathways, clear quality assurance, and respected accreditation.
