Vote 2024

Please note, the 2024 CPA Alberta Board Vote will open on Tuesday, May 21.


This year, 10 candidates are running for two open positions, including an incumbent running for re-election on the CPA Alberta Board. Please see below to find more information about the candidates by reading their biographies and reflections on the profession.

You may also wish to consider that the CPA Alberta Governance Committee has identified the following competency areas, professional experience, and characteristics that would be the ideal fit to strengthen the expertise of the CPA Alberta Board.

Capabilities and Technical Skills:

  • A CPA with legal expertise.

Demographics currently under-represented on the Board:

  • A CPA residing in a rural community.
  • A CPA who received their designation in 2014 or later.
  • A CPA with a foreign designation, a newcomer to Canada, or someone with international experience.
  • Our board has made significant strides in diversity, but our goal is to further broaden our candidate pool. At present, no Board members identify as having a disability, and we are seeking to include more ethnic diversity.

Please note:

  • There is no expectation for a single candidate to meet all the above criteria for skills or demographics.
  • There are no proposed changes to the organization’s governing documents, no Regulatory Vote is necessary this year.
