School of Business

The School of Business maintains an active partnership with CPA Alberta, the province's professional accounting organization. Two of our programs are recognized as meeting the prerequisite educational requirements needed to enter the CPA Professional Education Program (PEP): the Bachelor of Business Administration (Accounting major) and the Bachelor of Applied Business Administration (Accounting major). We also offer the CPA prerequisite courses available for open enrolment registration through the Professional Accounting courses.

The Business Administration (Management major) diploma has national accreditation for the Certificate in Management and Administration leading to the Certified in Management professional designation through the Canadian Institute of Management (CIM).

The Business Administration (Marketing major) diploma is recognized by the CPSA as meeting their educational requirements. Graduates of the Business Administration (Marketing major) diploma who completed the Business Development (MKTG 366) course elective are eligible to apply for the CPSA's Professional Sales Certificate, which recognizes that you possess all the skills and knowledge needed to start a career in sales.

The Institute for Performance and Learning is Canada's only not-for-profit, member-based organization representing workplace learning professionals. It recognizes SAIT's Train the Trainer Certificate of Completion as meeting the competency requirements for their live skills demonstration and written exam of the Certified Training Professional (CTP) TM designation.

SAIT has been reviewed and approved as a provider of project management training by PMI. As an Authorized Training Partner (ATP), we meet PMI-established quality assurance criteria and our instructors are authorized to teach PMP® Exam preparation, Disciplined Agile® Scrum Master (DASM), and Disciplined Agile® Senior Scrum Master (DASSM). SAIT’s non-credit Project Management Certificate of Completion is a great way to gain in-demand project management knowledge and skills while completing training hours which can be used toward PMI certification educational requirements and professional development units (PDUs).
