CPA Accredited Programs

CPA Accredited Programs are graduate degree programs delivered by post-secondary institutions (PSIs) that are accredited by CPA Ontario to deliver all or part of the CPA Professional Education Program (CPA PEP).

PSIs may deliver part of CPA PEP through a combination of undergraduate and graduate courses. If your program doesn’t offer all the required CPA PEP modules, you will need to complete them directly through CPA PEP.

All accredited students are also required to take the Common Final Examination (CFE) and carry out the practical experience requirements.

Questions? Contact CPA Ontario's Accredited Program team.

Please note: The new CPA Professional Program launches in January 2027. We encourage you to continue your path towards completion of the PEP program. However, all PEP education components must be successfully completed by December 2028. After that date, students will be required to transition to the new CPA Professional Program.   

Admission to membership

When you qualify for membership, CPA Ontario will send you an invitation to apply for your CPA designation.
