Our program provides you with a broad range of financial services, business and soft skills plus the opportunity to earn the licences and designations that financial services institutions are looking for in the professionals they hire. Faculty are chosen for their expertise and experience in the financial services sector, and many continue to work in the industry.

The baby boomers, the cohort of 50- to 70-year olds who account for one in three Canadians, are expected to be the wealthiest retirees in history, and will likely want help managing their assets for decades to come. Be in demand advising clients on investments, retirement, trusts, taxation and insurance. Find employment as a financial advisor, financial planner or investment advisor. Or, use your entrepreneurial skills and knowledge gained in the program to open your own financial services practice or act as a consultant.
Note: If a student applies for conditional acceptance but later decides to take their IELTS/TOEFL, they will need to reapply and submit a new application.
