ObjectivesThis program provides students with excellent accounting training in a shorter time frame than the three-year Accounting co-op and non co-op programs. All the quality features of our accounting programs are present. However, you will not study certain subjects at the advanced level. You will still be prepared to succeed in the workplace - we have worked hard at designing a two-year program that is rigorous and develops saleable skills. If you want to continue your studies in the three-year program, the opportunity is available. This two-year accounting program concentrates on building skills in financial and managerial accounting and developing strong skills in accounting software. Communications and analytical skills are also emphasized, as they are important for employment. Graduates look forward to rewarding employment opportunities in a wide range of business sectors.
