Back to school on Monday for accountants and lawyers to learn to issue pensions – When will they get to work

Tomorrow, Monday, August 23, 2021, the first training cycle of lawyers and accountants-tax technicians is kicking off by e-EFKA (the electronic platform of the unified social security fund), with the aim, after their successful certification, to join the award process and contribute to the faster issuance of pensions.

At the same time, by decision of the e-EFKA head Panagiotis Doufexis, the participants in the first round of certification have increased from 180, which was initially announced, to 1,200, due to the large number of applications.

As mentioned in an e-EFKA announcement, the applications of lawyers and accountants-tax experts, to be included in the Special Register of Certified Professionals of e-EFKA, exceeded 3,600. It is noted that for their training-certification, order of priority will be observed based on the time of submission of the application.

The training will take place both asynchronously, through an interactive online platform (Moodle), on the website howto.gov.gr, as well as with online lessons in real time.
