SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH (June 26, 2007) — The Canadian Bookkeepers Association (CBA) announced that they have accredited Universal Accounting®'s Professional Bookkeeper™ Program, recognizing the course as an approved educational tool for CBA members.

Universal has been an affiliate member of CBA several months, and is excited to further develop their relationship with the association and its members.
