June 25, 2012
12:00-1:30 p.m. Eastern
The Actuarial Board for Counseling and Discipline (ABCD) was established by the U.S. actuarial organizations to strengthen members’ adherence to the recognized standards of ethical and professional conduct. One of the ABCD’s key functions is to provide confidential guidance to actuaries seeking help in interpreting the Code of Professional Conduct, the Actuarial Standards of Practice, and the U.S. Qualification Standards, and navigating professionalism issues in their practice. During a 90-minute webinar, our expert panelists reviewed the process for requesting guidance, discussed several case studies based on requests for guidance received by the ABCD, and answered questions.
This webinar was presented by the Academy’s Council on Professionalism and cosponsored by the ASPPA, CAS, CCA, and SOA.
