It is to my greatest delight to report
that I attended orientation at Schulich School of business this Friday. I had
the pleasure of sitting on the same table as the Dean and program director as
well as other prestigious members of the Schulich team. I felt very honoured.
This however does not blind me to the amount of work ahead. I know that this
year is going to be an interesting ride. A lot of hard work but I have faith
that the end will justify the means. I give thanks to my supportive loving
husband who has been a great support in allowing me to make it into this
program. The Schulich Master of accounting is an innovate program created as a solution to a recent
study found on the Canadian broad casting website about the unemployed generation
in Canada. You can find this documentary at http://www.cbc.ca/doczone/episode/generation-jobless.html . The
documentary elaborates about the jobless state of undergraduates from Canadian universities
especially those in the arts and social sciences. Thus the Master of accounting
at York seeks to retool such individuals to areas of the economy such as
accounting that is still a high demand market for graduates. I am fortunate
enough to be one among seventeen chosen from seventy applicants. I have my
first class tomorrow and looking forward to it with the eager anticipation of a
five year old child. I must say I am eager to learn all I can from this program
in order to be able to steer my career where I want it to go. I will keep you
posted on the first day of class. For Monday’s class I have covered chapters
one and two, the accounting environment and financial statement: a window on
entity.
awesome!
