Education and Exam Support - [PDR*]

*  In addition to the traditional volunteer roles and tasks which our members undertake each year, there are also a number of other opportunities whereby members can offer to provide "paid" support for a fixed service.  These opportunities are not by definition, "volunteering" roles.  However, we recognise that the fee paid is nominal and we, as a profession, are therefore extremely grateful to, and reliant upon, those members who provide this service to enhance and develop our profession.  We think of this as being part of "Professional Development and Responsibility" [PDR].

As such our Education Directorate is seeking to hear from members who are qualified actuaries and who are willing to provide support in this way in helping to set, mark, and run the profession’s exams.  We are seeking support from members who would like to act as:

• Practical Exam Assessors
• Exam Paper Setters
• Independent Examiners ( to review the university teaching and examining to demonstrate equivalence with the Profession’s exams)
• Exam Markers
• Exam Counsellors
• Guinea Pigs – to test our exams

If you are interested in offering your support, or finding out more about any of the above, please contact Debbie Atkins, Head of Volunteer Engagement.  When contacting Debbie please indicate the area of interest to you.  Please also confirm you are a qualified actuary and provide a note of your ARN.
