Program details

Overview

The accounting diploma builds practical, entry-level skills aimed at roles within non-profits, corporations, and other organizations. A first-year curriculum shared with other accounting and business students is followed by focused study of accounting principles and bookkeeping practices. Graduates who complete the program successfully can proceed directly into the third year of the Bachelor of Business Administration stream or its Honours equivalent.

Computer competency in relevant software is recommended but not required.
