Also, these are only diplomas, I realize that there is probably more benefit going for a degree or more, but I'm not entirely clear on what is involved short of dropping everything to go to school full time for a few years, which I'm not prepared to do. I'd like to get this done all part time. I realize this will take a long time, but at least I'll be working towards something. Thoughts? If you want to get into accounting, taking one of those diploma courses could be a good start, but you'll eventually need a bachelors degree to get anywhere in the field and obtain a CA, CMA, or CGA designation. Likely you'll be starting off as a clerk in A/R and A/P with that education for about $40-50k per year. I believe that CGA is the most friendly group for upgrading from a diploma, so I'd recommend you take a look at the steps you'll need to take once you finish the short course and decide now if you want to get it all over with at once. *Edit: Check with your university program, but I imagine you'll be at the foundation level with a two year course, advanced with three, and a bachelor will fast track you to the top. http://www.cga-ontario.org/Prospective_Students/Becoming_a_CGA/Program_At_A_Glance.aspx King Chicken fucked around with this message at 06:47 on Jan 5, 2010 |
