Overview

All the courses in this Finance program from British Columbia Institute of Technology are designed to teach you to the necessary skills and confidence to help you pursue a career in finance while preparing you for accelerated study to become an accountant.

Career

With the focus on practical skills, BCIT’s program gets you ready to perform in your new financial career from the first day. And because of the wide variety of courses through the program, graduates have a similarly wide variety of jobs in the financial, accounting, and investment industries.

Some opportunities in finance include:

Financial Services Representative
Financial Analyst
Finance Manager
Corporate Financial Manager
Investment Portfolio Manager
Senior Financial Analyst

While many students begin their careers immediately upon graduation, others decide to continue their education for a bachelor’s degree, which is required to pursue a Chartered Professional Accounting (CPA) designation or the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation. This diploma program ladders directly into BCIT’s Bachelor of Accounting program, and is recognized at many universities for block credit transfers.
