Success Stories and Testimonials

“The education I received at Algonquin College thoroughly prepared me for continued success at University and the successful completion of my CMA accounting designation. I still use many of the professional skills and knowledge I learned at the college, in my job as a financial analyst, assisting with the delivery of key programs for Canada’s men and women in uniform at the Department of National Defence.”
– Jason Duff, Certified Management Accountant (CMA)

Work-Integrated Learning

The Business – Accounting program is part of the mobile computing (laptop) initiative, which better prepares students for an increasingly technology-oriented workplace. In the fourth level of the program, qualified students can participate in an optional work placement, which provides practical, on-the-job experience in the accounting departments of Ottawa-based businesses and the public and private sectors.
