LEADER IN PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING EDUCATION

MMPA 24 & 27-MONTH STREAMS

The University of Toronto’s MMPA program is dedicated to developing both MBA and MMPA (Master of Professional Accounting) knowledge and skills in an integrated framework. An MBA learning experience develops analytical skills and case-oriented reasoning capacities, and an MMPA learning experience develops technical knowledge and application skills. Research has shown that technical expertise will enhance your early career and MBA-developed analytical and reasoning skills will benefit yourlater career.

The MMPA is designed to be the most time-concentrated, Master’s level gateway to professional accounting and financial markets employment, particularly for students graduating from non-business programs. Advanced standing is available for business students.

The MMPA program is accredited by CPA Ontario allowing our graduates to move straight to the final module, Capstone 2 of the CPA PEP and then on to the CPA Common Final Exam (CFE).
