In May 2011, CMA Ontario encouraged Ontario-based CMAs and candidates to participate in a survey of compensation earned in 2010.  The survey had previously been conducted on 2008 compensation. Top-line survey results are as follows.

Among CMAs responding, the average total cash earned in 2010 was $119,400 and the median was $101,000.

This represents a 3.1% increase since the 2008 survey. Twenty-one per cent of CMAs responding were very satisfied and 63% were satisfied with their overall level of compensation.

Among Strategic Leadership Program (SLP) candidates responding, the average total cash earned in 2010 was $63,000 and the median was $58,000. Nine per cent of SLP candidates responding were very satisfied and 55% were satisfied with their overall level of compensation.
