WEBINAR INVITATION

IAA Webinar on Real-Life Experiences of Standard Setting

One of the Strategic Objectives of the International Actuarial Association (IAA) is to support the development of the actuarial profession worldwide and promote appropriate professional standards through Member Associations (IAA Strategic Objective "Assure: Promotion of the Profession").

To this end, the IAA has been engaged in developing and maintaining model standards of actuarial practice, called International Standards of Actuarial Practice (ISAPs), and has encouraged actuarial standard-setting bodies to maintain substantially consistent standards to the extent that the content of the ISAPs is appropriate for actuaries in their jurisdiction.

Following the findings from a survey conducted in 2021, the IAA Professionalism Committee is hosting a series of webinars and workshops to support IAA Member Associations wanting help to establish or strengthen their standard setting process, and to encourage the adoption/adaption of ISAPs locally. The first webinar in the series, "Introduction to Standard Setting", was held on 7 September 2022.

We are pleased to invite you to participate in the second webinar in the series, in which we will provide real-life experiences of standard setting with examples from the German Association of Actuaries and Caribbean Actuarial Association. This webinar will include presentations by Birgit Kaiser (German Association of Actuaries) and Lisa Wade (Caribbean Actuarial Association).  The moderator for the webinar will be Yvonne Lynch, Chair of the IAA's Professionalism Committee.

The webinar will be held on Wednesday, 27 September 2022 at 07:00 EDT (Click here to check your local time). The total duration of this event will be 60 minutes including the question-and-answer session at the end.

This webinar is open to all member associations of the IAA, actuarial standard setting bodies and interested parties. The webinar is free of charge - registration is essential, however (see below).
