CERTIFIED GENERAL ACCOUNTANTS OF ONTARIO

Dear CGA,

Finally! The Certified General Accountants of Ontario has been granted authorized designated body status. CGA Ontario now has the authority to issue public accounting licences to those certified general accountants who qualify. Please view the media release for further details.

To learn what you need to do to qualify for a public accounting licence please visit https://www.cga-ontario.org/Public_Accounting/Public_Accounting_Licences_CGAs_.aspx.

This is a tremendous accomplishment for CGAs and CGA Ontario. Access to public accounting licences for CGAs enhances the stature of the designation for all who hold it. CGAs are now legally entitled to fully practise in whatever segment of the profession that they choose. 

CGAs across Ontario have worked hard and waited a long time to take our rightful place in the field of public accounting. Congratulations to each and every one of us.

Sincerely,

Doug Brooks, FCGA

Chief Executive Officer
