A.C.S.B. Designation Program

The Surety Association of Canada’s Associateship of Canadian Surety Bonding (A.C.S.B.) Designation Program aims to provide students with a theoretical and in-depth practical understanding of suretyship.

This program is offered in partnership with McMaster University Continuing Education and requires students to complete six (6) courses (four (4) core courses and two (2) electives) which are delivered through a distance/on-line learning platform.

In addition, students may also qualify for the Associateship in Canadian Surety Bonding Academic Certificate from McMaster University Continuing Education.
