Working within audit provides a strong foundation and is an excellent first step in starting your professional career. As a member of the audit team at KPMG in Canada, you will have the opportunity to work directly with some of today's leading companies, understand their processes, and help them meet evolving financial reporting standards and regulations.
During your time with audit at KPMG, you will encounter new learning opportunities every day! While being supported by your engagement teams, mentors, and peers, you will further enhance your:
- Analytical skills
- Project management skills

- Communication
When you join audit at KPMG, you will be enrolled in the CPA Study Program which will prepare you for your CFE and guide you throughout your CPA journey from day one. You will be supported through many avenues including bootcamps, case writing coaching and mentorship.
As you move through your career at our firm, KPMG continues to offer many development and learning opportunities. Within audit, you will have the chance to explore different areas of the firm through secondments within another function. There are also global secondment opportunities in which you can travel to another KPMG office and work within their audit practice.
We also recognize that students want to be challenged with important work that has meaning and impact, while also having greater flexibility to navigate their careers. To address these needs, we offer students the opportunity to participate in Avenues, a program designed for graduates as they enter the early stages of their careers. The program will allow you to gain different experiences across our Audit and assurance, Tax, Advisory, and Business Enablement Services practices as you work towards your professional designation and consider a specialization. This program is currently running in our Calgary and Greater Vancouver Area offices.
