About the Certificate
Due to technological progress in connection with Data Science and
Digitalization, summarized under the buzzword Big Data, a plethora
of opportunities and challenges for the industry is arising.
Technological developments have now also reached the insurance
industry and thus have a direct impact on the working world of
actuaries.
Under the heading Actuarial Data Science, the procedures and
methods of data mining are embedded in the actuarial context. These
range from mathematics-driven statistical methods for derivation of
insights from data to computation-driven methods sometimes
summarized as machine learning. As a result of almost unlimited
computing capacity through cloud computing and wide availability of
training data, tried and tested methods of machine learning, such
as artificial neural networks, are experiencing a renaissance in
theory and practice.
Due to the importance of this topic and to provide actuaries and
participants working in the field of (actuarial) data science with
the necessary expertise, the European Actuarial Academy offers a
brand new EAA Certificate in Actuarial Data
Science.
Modules Overview
- Actuarial Data Science Basic
- Actuarial Data Science Advanced
- Actuarial Data Science Immersion
- Actuarial Data Science Completion
All four modules (seminar and exam) must be completed to obtain the
additional title Certified Actuarial Data Scientist by the AVÖ
and/or DAV.
Participants who do not hold an AVÖ or DAV membership have also
the opportunity to obtain a newly established EAA Certificate in
Actuarial Data Science by taking part in all four modules and the
corresponding exams. It is planned to offer all four modules in
2024 and 2025.
In addition, all courses are open to interested actuaries to
deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of Actuarial Data
Science (without exams). |

This web session is the second part of our four-part
series. Throughout this session, you will delve into
an advanced introduction to the concepts and terms of
artificial intelligence, modern data management concepts (with a
special look at insurance companies), aspects of data protection
and the mathematical and statistical concepts of data mining. On
our way, we touch different use cases in the actuarial environment.
To this end, we provide a brief insight into the widely used
language Python. The training rounds off with principles for the
ethical handling of artificial intelligence in the insurance
environment. |

insight into the widely used language R and development tools in
the data science context (RStudio, Anaconda). The seminar rounds
off with principles for the ethical handling of artificial
intelligence in the insurance environment. |

This web session is the third part of a four-part series at the
German Actuarial Association (DAV). In this online training, we
will expand on and deepen some of the topics already known from the
basic and advanced trainings, discussing further important
techniques in the context of deep learning and providing further
theoretical foundations. It is based on the learning objectives of
the DAV for Actuarial Data Science Immersion, which is part of the
actuarial training in Germany. |
