Overview

For those interested in pursuing a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation, this program is a two-year, co-operative education eligible post-baccalaureate diploma program that will aid in the pursuit of a CPA designation. This program is designed for students who hold a bachelor’s degree in a discipline other than commerce or business administration.

Graduates gain the skills to secure intermediate-level accounting positions in financial reporting, taxation, management accounting and auditing.

For students interested in pursuing further education, the Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Accounting satisfies the entrance requirements of the Chartered Professional Accountant’s (CPA) Professional Education Program (PEP). From there, graduates can move on to careers as tax auditors, financial officers, controllers, auditors and financial analysts.

Students whose degree is in commerce or business administration should apply for entrance into the Post-Degree Diploma in Accounting program.

Students enrolled in this program may be eligible for a Co-operative Education designation. Co-operative Education involves alternating full-time academic and work terms. For information contact the Co-operative Education Office.
