As an accounting professional group with a history of more than 90 years, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants enjoys high credibility not only in Canada, but also in many countries and regions in the world. Besides Canada, it has members and students in the Caribbean, Bermuda, China, Hongkong and Chinese mainland.
As the largest developing country in the world, with the development of economy, China's accounting work has been paid more and more attention by the government. 1993, in order to help and promote the development of accounting industry in China and Canada, and train the next generation of accountants, it is hoped that they can reach international standards and promote the development of global accounting. At the same time, in order to increase and improve the number and quality of members of the Association, CGA entered China with the support of Canadian National Development Agency. Now, under the organization and supervision of Jinfan Professional and Technical Training Center, its representative office in China, CGA's ten-year development in China has been widely recognized by China government, China accounting academic circles, China universities and various employers. CGA has embarked on a comprehensive development road from a single qualification certification to the integration of domestic qualification certification, curriculum development, international academic seminars and university degree education.
First, the number of members and students is increasing, and the achievements are extraordinary. By the end of 2004, China * * * had more than 400 CGA members and more than 2,000 registered students. According to statistics, among CGA members and students in China, 50% are employed by Fortune 500 (multinational) enterprises, 35% by accounting firms, 15% by state-owned enterprises and 5% by government and educational institutions. 10% is engaged in senior positions such as CEO and CFO, 50% is engaged in intermediate positions such as financial manager and financial supervisor, and 35% is engaged in professional technology (such as IT). In terms of salary, the average annual salary of CGA members and students in China is RMB 65,438+00-65,438+02,000.

Two, actively develop advanced training courses to adapt to China's national conditions, and help China cultivate senior accounting talents in line with international standards. CGA's international leading position in the field of professional accounting and its advantages in curriculum design and development have been recognized by many academic groups and research institutions in China. Under the organization of CGA China Representative Office, courses such as Professional Ethics, Internal Risk Control and Project Management are being designed and developed for China National Accounting Institute and Shanghai National Accounting Institute, which are mainly used for the follow-up education of certified public accountants and senior accountants in China. At the same time, large-scale international seminars were jointly held with the Accounting Department of People's Republic of China (PRC) Ministry of Finance, National Accounting Institute, Shanghai National Accounting Institute and China Institute of Certified Public Accountants, including "International Seminar on Accounting Education and Skills Framework of Accountants in the New Century" and "International Seminar on Professional Ethics of Certified Public Accountants".
