Accountancy and Computer Studies

Accounting examines how financial information is recorded, reported and used to support business decisions, and the CPA designation sets the professional standard for practitioners. The Accountancy and Computer Studies post-graduate diploma builds on that foundation, aligning its content with the CPA competency map to prepare graduates for the chartered professional accountant role.

Graduates become eligible to apply for CPA standing.

The programme suits holders of any bachelor's degree who wish to deepen their knowledge of accounting practices, management, taxation and commercial law, and who aim to enter public practice, corporate finance or governmental audit. The hybrid delivery combines classroom instruction with practical case studies, ensuring graduates can apply theory to real-world financial environments. It is delivered over three semesters at the Moose Jaw and Saskatoon campuses and includes the skills required for CPA registration and further career progression.
