Overview

Sheridan’s Business Administration – Accounting program will prepare you for an exciting career in business, accounting or finance.

Industry connections

Sheridan’s accounting professors are heavily involved in the financial industry, presenting at conferences and contributing to publications of accounting textbooks. Many have written books on financial topics, and many hold the Chartered Professional Accountants (CPA) designation. Our professors maintain strong relationships to local industry that often lead to co-op opportunities for our students.

What you’ll gain

  • A solid background in standard accounting practices.
  • Expertise in spreadsheets, databases, and accounting and personal income-tax software programs such as Sage 50, MS Access and Profile.
  • Training in essential communication skills for advising business owners and managers.
  • Hands-on experience in applying accounting concepts.

Online Business Simulation Game

The popular online Business Simulation Game (BSG) is a unique way to test your accounting and business skills running a fictitious company against collegiate teams from around the world. Sheridan’s three-year accounting program is one of the few in the area to offer this collaborative, hands-on simulation.

Additional information

Following the first year of common curriculum shared by all business administration students, you’ll begin an in-depth immersion in accounting principles and practices that prepare you for a career in accounting. The co-op program option provides an opportunity for three practical on-the-job placements.

As a student in the three-year program, you’ll also master skills essential for employment in the field’s more demanding positions:

  • Tax, audit and advanced accounting principles.
  • Budgeting, business analysis and financial statement preparation.

CPA recognition

Because of the strength of our program, our Accounting classes qualify for partial transfer to the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada’s Advanced Certificate in Accounting and Finance (ACAF).
