Everybody needs a paycheque…so Payroll Professionals are always in demand. Industry trusts payroll designated staff to ensure their people get paid.

The Payroll Professional program (CPAY500) is designed for learners interested in developing a strong foundation in the payroll field. If you’re looking to succeed in fast-paced, challenging payroll environments, this program will provide the preparation you need. When you successfully complete the program, you will be able to use your creativity and a range of resources to solve payroll-related problems.

As this is an academic program, students should be prepared for homework requirements for evenings and weekends to prepare for classes and complete assignments. 

Students will take all the required courses for their Payroll Compliance Practitioner (PCP) designation along with courses that will round out the skills typically required of payroll professionals such as Sage, Business Communications, Word and Excel.
