CMA and MBA: A rewarding combination

Whether you already have or are considering an MBA – the CMA designation and an MBA are perfect complements for future success.

Equipped with both credentials, you score a winning advantage in today’s highly competitive job market where having an accounting designation provides a way to differentiate against the competition. The CMA designation opens the door to a competitive income, a broad range of career opportunities and exciting workplace challenges.

If you have your MBA

MBA graduates typically begin the path to achieving their CMA by completing the seven month CMA Accelerated Program and passing the CMA Entrance Exam. Candidates then have the option of completing the two year CMA Strategic Leadership program, or taking advantage of a new CMA for MBA program delivered by Wilfrid Laurier University in as little as ten months.

The new CMA for MBA program begins in September 2009. Courses run Friday evenings and all day Saturday every second weekend.
