Together we can make a difference! Help the CAEF to empower Alberta youth.
Donate to the Paying It Forward campaign – in support of financial literacy education for Alberta teens. The CAEF plans to raise $250,000 by September 2012 to fund projects that will provide junior and senior high school students with the tools they need to be financially responsible as adults.
We need your help to reach our goal!

Oil and Gas Conference
CICA's Financial Reporting Conference for the Oil and Gas Industry
The adoption of IFRS created some unique challenges for the Canadian oil and gas industry and created uncertainty for oil and gas companies on how to interpret and apply the new standards, along with concerns of diversity in practice across the industry. This conference will provide technical updates for key standards impacting the industry and lessons learned to date, along with sessions addressing broader areas of interest and concern for financial professionals in this industry. This conference will also provide a unique opportunity to discuss the issues and challenges you face with colleagues and peers from across the country. The conference's keynote address will be given by Diane Francis, Editor-at-Large, The National Post.
