Two skill sets in one diploma

You graduate with a general business management foundation and a dedicated accounting specialization—QuickBooks, Sage, cloud accounting and Canadian payroll—so you can apply across office and finance roles.

I recently took the Business Management in Accounting program and was very pleased with everything! I learned a lot and the professors were very helpful and supportive, they made sure they made time to help when needed and the course outline was laid out perfectly!
