Career in Accounting

[Kyle]

Hello all,

My name is Kyle and I am currently in my third year of the Bachelor of
Commerce program at the University of Alberta School of Business in
Edmonton, Canada. I am majoring in accounting and I intend on getting
a professional designation once I graduate. The three options I have
are Chartered Accountant, CGA, and CMA. To those of you out there
with a career in accounting, I am wondering what is the best route to
take for current job prospects in Canada and the US?

Thanks for your time,

Kyle

CGA is the most broad and indepth of all those designations, therefore
it offers the holder the best prospects.
