Your Pathway to Global-Ready Accounting Expertise The Accounting program at the Canadian College of Kuwait (CCK) leads to a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Accounting through a structured 2+2 pathway. It equips students with the analytical mindset, financial precision, and ethical grounding needed to succeed in today’s evolving business environment. Graduates of the program receive four paper exemptions from ACCA UK, providing a fast-track to one of the world’s most recognized professional certifications in accounting and finance.
The journey begins with the two-year Diploma of Business – Accounting, where students build core competencies in financial reporting, payroll, taxation, and regulatory compliance. Emphasizing real-world application, the program includes hands-on training with industry-standard accounting software and a strong foundation in economics, communication, and digital literacy.
The program is also aligned with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). Upon graduation, students are exempted from four ACCA foundation papers, accelerating their path to becoming certified finance professionals.
Students who meet academic progression criteria move into Year 3 of the BBA in Accounting. In the final two years, students deepen their understanding of strategic finance, auditing, business law, and corporate governance — preparing them for high-impact roles across industries, both in Kuwait and internationally.
