Advanced College Diploma - Accounting (Co-op)

The Advanced Accounting diploma and Advanced Accounting Specialized Co-op diploma offer a quick two-year path to an accounting career, using your existing degree. You'll build on current knowledge and learn the skills you need to become an accountant.

Upon graduation, students with a 4-year degree can jump right into the CPA Professional Education Program while gaining work experience.

The Advanced Accounting Co-op Diploma offers a fast-paced and intensive pathway to becoming a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) for students who already have a degree and are looking to accelerate their accounting career.

Classes will primarily be held in person at RDP, with some online options available. For your co-op work experience, you may be required to travel within central Alberta. You'll have opportunities for valuable networking opportunities and to apply your classroom knowledge in a real-world setting.

The AAD Co-op is fast-paced and intense, requiring dedication and focus. However, it also offers a significant advantage by providing a solid foundation for pursuing the CPA designation.
