CASB offers a state-of-the-art competency development program for prospective Chartered Accountants in Western Canada. Through graduate-style education, practical experience, and exposure to standards and ethics of the highest calibre, CASB students become 'business-ready' CAs.
CASB's competency-based learning program comprises five core modules and one Uniform Evaluation (UFE) preparation module. The core modules each include eight weeks of facilitated online learning, a three-day face-to-face interactive session, and a one-day evaluation session. As students progress through the core modules, they trace the life cycle of a simulated business and learn essential skills, applicable both to their jobs and to their future success as CAs. Module six is a two-week face-to-face session, specifically designed to help students prepare for the UFE.
CASB was formed in 2000 by the Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan Institutes of Chartered Accountants. CASB oversees the education of CA students in the Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories and Nunavut.
