本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛With nearly all provincial associations participating in the merger process, CGA Ontario is very lonely and has little negotiation power, but to accept the current framework. The CGA as an organization has become much more influential over the years as its body of membership expanded phenomenally. But the progress does not benefit its members very much if not at all. Ten years ago when there were not so many CGAs, having the designation gave you a certain distinction and an easy time to get a good job. Nowadays, there are so many of them and its value is diluted. It is a fact that there is an oversupply of designated accountants. The management of CA recognizes the fact and that is why it has been pushing so hard for the merger despite the most vehement opposition from its new members. Canada is too small to sustain three accounting bodies. As each body competes for members, the result is lowered standards in the certification programs although CGA has been increasing its standards. This hurts the accounting profession and the interests of the existing members. If the three bodies continue to stand alone, one day a designation may become equivalent to the certificate for an entry level job because nearly everyone has one, be it CA, CGA or CMA.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
