“Finding the CPB Canada community was a turning point in my journey – and honestly, something I only wish I had discovered much earlier.
As I was building my bookkeeping business, I learned a lot along the way, but having access to clear standards, guidance, and a community of professionals would have made growing much simpler in so many ways.
Becoming a Certified Professional Bookkeeper has been incredibly important – not just for me, but for the clients we serve. It reinforces our commitment to doing things properly and consistently, and to delivering bookkeeping in Canada at a high, professional standard.”
Hammad Mazhar, CFA, CPB
“Coming from an investments background and earning my CFA charter back in 2020, I pivoted to establishing my own accounting firm out of Toronto in 2023. This came following a realization that my 10+ years of experience in various accounting & finance domains provides a unique value to SME owners looking for a finance business partner.
The CPB designation, in particular, caught my attention as it not only provides me an opportunity to further refine my understanding of accounting administration but also enhances my credibility with sought-after industry credentials. I now look forward to connecting with industry leaders within the CPB community to learn and share from our experiences to build better processes & systems together.”
