The Time is now
Become involved in management decision-making and learn the language of business. Today's accountants are dynamic decision-makers who work as part of the business team to ensure growth and success. As an accountant, you'll have your hand in every aspect of a business or organization -- it's a very creative field, and not a mere science.
Program Highlights
Put your keen interest in business and financial planning to work in our three-year program. We focus on the practical skills you'll need to succeed, and you'll take part in a field placement with a business or industry for hands-on experience. In your first and second semesters, you'll take part in courses common to all Business Administration students at Fleming. In semesters three to six, you'll specialize in the training you'll need to pursue your career as an accountant.
Why Choose Fleming?
You'll have great employment opportunities and can get on track towards a professional designation too. Your course work can be counted towards exemptions in the first three levels of Certified General Accountant (CGA) program of study. We've got a cutting-edge program, and our faculty have professional designations. This means you'll be taught by people who know what you need to succeed -- and graduate with the relevant education employers are looking for. We think this says it all -- great education, super teachers, and excellent career prospects.
Work Experience
Put your education to the test. As part of your studies, you will complete a minimum of 140 hours of field placement. You'll arrange these placements, with the support of your program co-ordinator, during the course of study. This experience in a business or industry will give you the chance to put your education to work and provide contacts and a network for future employment.
