L’abréviation «B. Com.» pour «baccalauréat en commerce» et «Baccalauréat en sciences commerciales» ne respecte pas les règles de formation des abréviations en français, car on doit normalement mettre le point abréviatif devant une voyelle. C’est toutefois l’abréviation employée dans le milieu, et conseillée notamment par le Bureau de la Traduction.
