nvm accounting isnt that hard its just like socials 10-11 where you have to know a lot of stuff and reading more/repetition will eventually make the connection, i probably already have a good guess/idea on how the tests will be like already =)

myra is the best prof for business math. try to get her for stats as well. i don't know much about your other profs except masoud can get pretty annoying sometimes. you'll ask him a question and he'll tell you to go look on the bsys website. pretty annoying if you ask me

i have a better job with a diploma than some friends who have BBAs . | just out of curiousity what kind of job do you have? and your friends with BBAs?

Bob Delorme is actually a pretty funny guy with a very dry sense of humour. Myra is a great math teacher and hope you get her for stats again. Ronny mac is good too but Masoud is hard to understand sometimes and doesn't answer some questions very clearly. Finally Jeff is not that great of a teacher but is a pretty cool guy. Marketing with him was eaasssyyy. Posted via RS Mobile |

Anyone got any hookups/leads for accounting related positions? I don't have any accounting experience, making things tough to land a position.

Particular accounts receivables is a good place to start with little or no experience. That's how I got into my potion. I started as an AR clerk, then moved into AP and then human resources and payroll. Now I do full cycle accounting for a small business and am working on going back to school to eventually get a designation.
It's the long route but you end up with a pretty well grounded in practical experience while getting paid better then your average intro position. And you will know if you're a good fit for it before you invest a bunch of time and money into going to school.

You're a level 4 CGA which means you're almost done which means you're more specialized and more work ready compared to them. Not only that, but you've also done more schooling than them as well, so I don't think it's really fair to say you're doing better than they are when they could be at the same position you are in

You can get into the CGA program with only a Financial Management diploma? I thought you need a degree?

you don't need either, you can take the CGA program that CGA offers, You could take classes at their CGA office on Broadway. This information is like 5 years old. Haha I don't know if that has changed.
The one that needs a degree to be even considered is CA or Chartered Accountant.
Dhari's coment about BBA, i think that comment is pretty dependant on the person itself. Depends where they did their BBA and in what major.
I know tonnes of Commerce/BBA grads as CAs, CFAs, bank analyst, CFOs, COOs. stuff like that. Granted i'm an old fart in terms of RS. But most of them came out with a decent job and income. And no unemployed or accounts payable clerk that's for sure.

You dont need anything to get IN to the cga program. However, in order to get the designation, you will need a degree.
CGA Route (through fin man)
- finish 2 yr fin man @ BCIT
- finish 2 yr Bachelors of Technology @ BCIT (can be full time or pt)
