ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
In our first professionalism webinar of 2018, attendees gained an in-depth look at the U.S. Qualification Standards. During this webinar, members of the Academy’s Committee on Qualifications (COQ) explored key topics drawn from questions posed by practicing actuaries, such as:
- What qualifies as a statement of actuarial opinion?
- What are the experience requirements under the general and specific qualification standards?
- What is the “look in the mirror test”?
- What qualifications are needed to enter new practice areas?
- What constitutes “organized” continuing education?
Speakers answered these questions and more. They also discussed tools the Academy provides to document compliance with the USQS.
