Chartered Professional Accountants

The CPA Prerequisite Education Program (CPA PREP) makes a CPA designation attainable for candidates who have a degree in a field other than business or accounting. The new CPA program is designed to provide professional candidates the tools to succeed in business, no matter where their careers take them. CPA candidates in the workforce will have the applied knowledge and demonstrated expertise that employers want, including specialized technical skills, sector-specific competencies, problem solving abilities and the ethical integrity to lead. CPA candidates choose the professional studies path and the real-work experience that best match their career aspirations. They will have the flexibility to work in any type of organization, in any industry, at any level of management. Accountants with the new CPA designation will be highly sought after by employers across Canada.
