The Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA) marks the official start of its new education system with the release of the first content module, a major milestone in transforming the actuarial education landscape in Canada.
CIA members are creative in a number of ways, with some even expressing themselves through visual art. One of these individuals is Haris Sardar, FCIA, who joins us on this episode to discuss his successful sideline as a painter and to share some of the inspiration behind his impressive works.
The CIA is embarking on the most substantial changes yet to our qualification system, which will offer new and varied ways to achieve membership in the Institute. Joining us to discuss our exciting new direction is Alicia Rollo, Director of Education and International Affairs at the CIA.
At the CIA’s annual conference, act22,last June, we delivered a mix of technical sessions and inspiring keynote presentations, and encouraged discussions to help Canada’s actuaries with their work, post-conference.
We’re profiling recipients of the CIA Legacy Awards, our annual appreciation program that recognizes the valuable contributions of volunteers who move the CIA forward. This spotlight is recognition of those efforts, but most importantly, it is thanks. This month’s spotlight features Dane Grand-Maison, FCIA, Consulting Actuary at Eckler.
