The course that provides a practical overview of the day to day work of an actuary in an insurance environment. What you'll learn: A practical overview of the work of an actuary in a traditional insurance environment. Whether you are an actuarial student, someone who works with actuaries, or just interested in what an actuary actually does, you may be surprised to hear that the every day work of an actuary may be quite different from what you've studied in your course notes or read online.We can all probably visualise what the work of a doctor, lawyer or teacher entails, but the actuarial profession remains shrouded in mystery. Even for those who have completed an actuarial degree, there is often a huge gap between one's theoretical studies and the work one actually does in the corporate world.This course aims to bridge that gap, providing a practical, intuitive and conversational overview of the typical processes actuaries are involved in, current hot topics in the industry and challenges those in the profession face - all the things they don't teach you at university or in actuarial exams.For aspiring actuaries this course will provide a head-start going into an insurance-based job, allowing you to feel a lot more comfortable with real-life actuarial concepts and language, confident enough to join in conversations and able to express questions you have with more clarity. It will also help you answer questions like "Is this really the kind of work I want to be doing? Is the actuarial profession really for me?"

A guide on how to get into the greatest profession What you'll learn: Understand the process of getting into the actuarial profession Actuaries make financial sense of an uncertain future. In this course we look at the following:What is an Actuary?Should you become an Actuary?What subjects at school should you choose?What university course should you enroll in?Which actuarial society should you join?How to get your first actuarial jobWhich actuarial subject should you specialize in?What is Work Based Skills?What is Continued Professional Development?How to start becoming an Actuary today

Actuarial work involves modeling future contingent events that are uncertain in terms of timing, frequency and severity. Understanding the central tendency of a contingency and its possible distribution is critical for an actuary to help individuals and institutions manage risk. This course covers continuous univariate probability distributions, discrete multivariate probability distributions, the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem with an eye toward actuarial applications.

Actuarial work involves modeling future contingent events that are uncertain in terms of timing, frequency and severity. Understanding the central tendency of a contingency and its possible distribution is critical for an actuary to help individuals and institutions manage risk. This course starts with a brief discussion of data analysis, focusing on the central tendency and distribution of data. Introductory probability concepts are introduced next. The course concludes with a study of discrete probability models with an eye toward actuarial application.

This specialization is a guide to creating your own business. We will cover a progression of topics necessary for successful business creation including: mindset, ideation, planning, action and strategy.

This certificate program consists of four courses that cover the financial math and probability concepts you need to begin a career as an actuary. The program includes two financial math courses that cover material tested on Exam FM of the Society of Actuaries. In these courses, you will learn to project forward and discount back cash flows from loans, bonds or other financial instruments. Applications in actuarial science are emphasized. The program also includes two probability courses that cover material tested on Exam P of the Society of Actuaries. In these courses, you will study general probability and random variables (both univariate and multivariate) and learn how these concepts apply to actuarial science jobs. By completing this certificate program, you will have the topical background necessary to sit for SOA exam P and SOA exam FM. The threshold for passing these exams can be high, and additional self-study may be necessary to gain the speed and accuracy needed to pass the exams. Those who complete this certificate and hold a bachelor’s degree are eligible to expand their actuarial education by applying for preferred admission to UW–Madison’s Actuarial Science Capstone Certificate Program.

By MJ the Fellow Actuary What you'll learn: A solid understanding of statistics and a good foundation of models, correlation and hypothesis testing. Statistics is all about processing data and extracting information. The information we seek is the parameters and distribution of the random variable that generated the data. Armed with this information we can answer questions about reality and optimize industrial processes. Statistics thus forms the backbone of science and business and this course is designed to help you understand the components of this fundamental subject and how they all fit together. Designed for Actuaries, but applicable for everyone.
