This undergraduate certificate prepares holders of a non-accounting bachelor's degree for entry into the Quebec CPA professional program. The 30-credit curriculum covers the core concepts required by the Ordre des CPA across financial accounting, management accounting, assurance, finance, and taxation. Courses run in an intensive 10-week cohort format, delivered part-time during the summer and fall terms and full-time during the winter term, with cohort enrolment capped at two courses per term. Delivery is entirely at a distance through Université TÉLUQ. The programme suits university graduates from outside accounting who need a structured, recognized pathway into the CPA designation without repeating a full accounting degree. The credential is awarded as a first-cycle university certificate by Université TÉLUQ, Quebec's dedicated distance-education university, and is designed to be completed alongside employment.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission requires a bachelor's degree, or equivalent, in a field other than accounting, or a foreign bachelor's degree in accounting earned outside Canada; admission is not granted on the basis of a college diploma (DEC) alone. Applicants must complete five prerequisite courses (SCO 1205, ECO 1300 or ECO 2400, MQT 2001, ADM 2006, and DRT 1060) and demonstrate mastery of written French, attested by the Université TÉLUQ written French test or an equivalent assessment.
