Practical Experience
In addition to successfully completing the CPA PEP modules and the CFE, candidates need to complete a term of relevant practical experience, including development of required competencies, to be eligible for membership with a provincial CPA body.
Candidates who have completed CA legacy experience need to submit a Competency-Based Confirmation of Practical Experience Certificate to the email address noted on the form (For MB: Please copy practicalexperience@cpamb.ca when you send the form).
CPA practical experience, as well as legacy CGA and CMA experience, is administered by the provincial bodies. For assistance, please contact the provincial bodies directly:
Application for Membership
Candidates who have successfully completed all three days of the CFE and the practical experience requirements should initiate an application for membership with their respective provincial accounting body. Each province will have the relevant forms and information regarding application for membership and convocation on their provincial website.
Appeals and PARs
Candidates who are successful with depth in Assurance (role) but who failed on depth in Financial Reporting and are interested in appealing their result can access detailed information about those processes here. Candidates who were successful other than those noted above cannot request an appeal of their results.
