Official CMA SLP 2014 Forum

For all those who have completed the October 2013 Entrance Exam and will be enrolling in the Jan 2014 SLP.

Lets help each other out in the next two years and get ourselves the designation.

Cheers.

How much do we have to pay when we register for SLP program. I do know we can pay in installments. Anyone?

Congrats to everyone who passed, from what i've been told the EE is much more difficult than the actual program(i think its like a 98% throughput rate). Anyone know what the deal is once we complete the SLP? which designation do we get now that the merger has gone through?

you should still get the CMA title, but now you also get the CPA title. However, I believe in 10 years, they will phase out the old names entirely and all will be called CPA only.

Which section will you guys register? The registration for Ontario hasn't started yet but I guess I'll go for downtown section. So let's help each other out in terms of program itself and finding relevant job to satisfy practical experience component :)

I am from Markham and I believe the closest location for the SLP is probably Downtown so I will enroll for that section as well.

You are correct, you have the choice of paying in full or in four installments throughout the two years.

I believe the Toronto North location is at BMO Learning Institute at Pharmacy and Steeles. If so, I am probably going to register for that, otherwise I'll go downtown.

For those in Ontario who are interested in reading on some details in the SLP program, here it is. http://www.cma-ontario.org/BecomeaCMA/C ... ience.aspx

and here is the fee structure for us in the next two years.

Strategic Leadership Program (after passing the Entrance Examination)
Program Cost HST Total

Annual Membership Fee

$489 + $63.57 = $552.57

2 Year Strategic Leadership Program (paid in four installments)

$9,370 + $1,218.10 = $10,588.10

*Sorry not 10200, it is 10600 haha.

a tip from someone starting year 2 - The location you choose is very important . When you get to yr 2 you'll be with your group a lot. IE - if you live in North Toronto , don't register for the downtown class cos then you'll have to come downtown at the weekends all the time in yr 2...
Also -the first month in SLP is tough.. very tough.. tougher than the EE. Prepare yourself for a lot of work and get started early.

I did my AP at York U, and for the EE I did it online. Anyone knows where should I register for SLP considering I am from Brampton?

I think Toronto North is probably closer to you if you are driving. If you commute by bus then it's better to just go downtown as you can get off at Union.

I believe they will send us the necessary registration info 2-3 weeks after the release of grades for EE.

Hi all,

As much as I've found all of the Red Flag Deal forums regarding the CMA AP/EE/SLP helpful; I thought I might supplement it with a Facebook group for those who'll be entering the SLP in January 2014 downtown. It's a good way to put names with faces; network; share information; etc. It'll be a closed group to maintain a degree of privacy. Feel free to shoot me an email at CMASLP2014@gmail.com to be added.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1435705803320071/

Cheers and congrats to all that passed!
