Hi everyone

Are there any CGAs on this forum. I am planning to be one and would really appreciate if anyone could give me some guidance on this profession. I reside in B.C. Thanks in advance.

Oops, sorry I posted this on the Our native country section, am new to this site but still would really appreciate replies.

I've moved it to the right section...

Hi Jmart

It is very kind of you to reply. What I would like to know is the scope of being a CGA. I have no accouting background, have a degree ( B.A.) from India and did one semester of M.B.A. in India. Have worked here in Canada for 5 years in Health Care field. How is the future for CGAs. The CGA prospectus speaks very highly of the demand and salaries for CGAs, how true is that? I also plan to do CGA- MBA from Laurentian University, will that a be marketable option? How much can CGAs expect to earn generally as they start and is sky the limit then? I work full time so when should I expect to see myself certified ? Will really appreciate any input from you. Is CA / CMA a better option than CGA. Thanks again , Jmart.
