dc.description.abstract | The article explores the usefulness of a nationally hosted tax intervention presented to tax students
from various South African universities to develop pervasive skills. In response to the call from
professional bodies and employers to develop pervasive skills, the design of the intervention was
aimed at affording students the opportunity in which they can apply and be exposed to the
pervasive skills development. The article is unique in that it determines, based on the perceptions
of a wide coverage of South African tax students, the usefulness of a one-of-a-kind tax-related
intervention. Quantitative data was gathered through an action research process using
questionnaires to evaluate the usefulness of the tax intervention in exposing students to pervasive
skills and in encouraging them to apply it. Overall, the intervention was perceived as an effective
teaching tool and tax students recommended it as a positive contributor in developing their
pervasive skills as part of higher education and training | en_US |
