Who are CGAs?

Certified General Accountants (CGAs) are a select group of professional accountants working in leadership roles in Canada and beyond.

CGAs are certified by the Certified General Accountants Association in their home province. Members in good standing with each provincial or territorial Association are licensed to practise in their respective provincial jurisdictions. The CGA designation is also recognized in several other countries, and the CGA Program of Professional Studies is offered in Bermuda, the Caribbean, China, and Hong Kong.

Members are represented nationally and internationally by CGA-Canada, and closer to home by their provincial or territorial Association, and local chapters. Members in Hong Kong are represented by CGA-Hong Kong. Other international members are represented by CGA-Canada.

There are approximately 73,000 CGAs and students worldwide.
