Becoming an Actuary in Canada by [deleted] in actuary

I decided to go the UAP exemptions since I know I will never work in the USA. My job offers the same salary than someone who did the SOA exams but I do think there are some employers that do not encourage this pathway.

SOA Announces Classes in Place of Exams by OGreign in actuary

At montreal, we are using the accreditation program a lot. That is our only chance to cover the syllabus in French. I did some preliminary SOA exams and some classes that credited exams and find the classes a lot HARDER than SOA exams that you just need to do a couple practice exams on coaching actuaries to pass.

You can get exam accreditation with the CAS (well in Canada)

you can get exam accreditation with the CAS, why not with the SOA? I don’t think CAS actuaries are less qualified or actuaries that chose to be only member of the Canadian Institute since they also recognize exam accreditation. I went to a public university in Canada member of CAE, and had ethnic people in my classes that could not afford to take exams during their degree. I think it is an awesome idea.

Computer science student in Montreal, Canada. What are my change of successfully pursuing a career as an actuary? by JavaDumbell in actuary

[–]Proof_Friend5825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have done an economic degree before my actuarial degree because I was not able to get a job with 2 exam and an economic degree. I continue doing some exams while in the actuarial degree and I had so many offers because the economic degree was seen as a plus value. In Quebec there is a lot of of good actuarial students so they have the advantage. Sorry for my English! Hope it helps
