Current and aspiring public-sector employees can now receive comprehensive public-sector financial management and strategic leadership training through a new dual-designation program developed by two leading international accounting bodies in consultation with the Office of the Comptroller General of Canada.

Candidates who successfully complete the program will receive a dual public-finance management and professional accounting designation as a Certified Management Accountant (CMA) and Chartered Public Finance Accountant (CPFA) from the Certified Management Accountants of Canada (CMA Canada) and the U.K.-based Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy.

The dual program begins with the CMA Strategic Leadership Program and adds four CPFA course modules (Governance and Public Policy; Public Finance; Financial and Performance Reporting; Audit and Assurance) over an additional eight months of studies.

The CPFA modules are offered in English and French as a distance-learning program through lectures on DVD (with email support).
