Overview

The two-semester Bookkeeping program at Centennial College will allow you to earn a certificate that will serve as a pathway to the Certified Bookkeeper designation from the Canadian Institute of Bookkeeping (CIB). Membership in the CIB will open the door to a variety of positions, including bookkeeper, accounts receivable/payable supervisor, payroll administrator and office manager.

In Bookkeeping, you will learn bookkeeping functions within the accounting cycle such as payables, inventory, accounts receivable, and payroll processing using QuickBooks and Sage 300 ERP.

Job prospects in bookkeeping are particularly well supported in Toronto because the region accounts for an above-average share of Ontario’s larger accounting, bookkeeping, payroll and related services firms.

Once you complete this certificate program, you’ll also be eligible to transfer, with credits, into Centennial’s two-or three-year Accounting programs to earn a diploma or advanced diploma.
