New professional skills videos published

Open-access content 7th November 2017

The IFoA has published 10 new professional skills video case studies and accompanying discussion videos, in which actuaries and other professionals provide their thoughts on various issues.


The IFoA has published 10 new professional skills video case studies and accompanying discussion videos, in which actuaries and other professionals provide their thoughts on various issues. Under a general theme of 'Actuarial Interaction and Challenge', the topics covered include ethical issues around: 

  •  Commutation factors
  •  Treating colleagues with respect
  •  Use of personal data
  •  New business at any cost
  •  Challenging advice
  •  Competency and experience issues moving into new fields
  •  Quality versus cost.

 

If you are one of around 12,000 members required to complete Professional Skills Training, Stage 3, the IFoA's online content is one option to meet those requirements. 

A toolkit for organisations who wish to hold their own continuing professional development (CPD) sessions will be available mid-November.

Details of the requirements for Professional Skills Training, Stage 3, are specified in the CPD Scheme 2017/2018, which can be downloaded at bit.ly/2uuGWky
