Becoming a CMA – FAQs #2: Can I work abroad with a CMA?

Over the past year we’ve interacted with hundreds of students over emails, career fairs, and information sessions. Many of the questions we come across are the same, so we’ve created this new blog series to address some key frequently asked questions.

Can I work abroad with my CMA?

While the CMA designation is a Canadian designation, CMAs are certainly not limited to working only in Canada. In fact, the value of the designation is recognized globally and there are currently CMA members living and applying their skills and knowledge in more than 90 countries worldwide.

Many CMAs who live in Canada also hold jobs that require them to travel to practically every part of the world. Read what some globetrotting CMAs had to say about their travel experiences.

In addition, CMA also holds mutual recognition agreements with CPA Australia, CIPFA Members (UK), and CIMA Members (UK).
