Certified General Accounting (CGA) Program
The program of studies consists of 4 levels of required courses plus the professional (PACE) courses. Successful completion
(67% or C+) of the PACE Level CGA courses will allow students to challenge the CGA professional exams. CGA Canada
has adopted a requirement that students have a degree prior to certification as a CGA. The degree is an exit requirement
rather than an entrance requirement. Exemptions for AAC courses: Within Levels 1 to 4, an AAC course can be used for
CGA exemption. A block transfer of CGA Levels 1 - 4 courses is based on a C+ average or better in the corresponding NAIT
courses taken as part of the Diploma or Degree program. If a student is not a NAIT Diploma graduate and enrolled in the
Applied Degree program, CGA exemptions are based on a minimum grade of C+ in each course. For more information on the
CGA Program, call 1.800.661.1078, visit their website at www.cga-alberta.org.
