The importance of volunteering has almost become a mantra for Sharon Giffen, CIA President from 2017–2018.
A growing profession: the CIA welcomes 273 new Fellows to the Institute
This year, the CIA was proud to welcome over 273 new Fellows to the Institute, 67 of whom took to the stage to receive their certificate of Fellowship in front of over 600 applauding guests at act19, the CIA’s annual conference.
Highlights of act19
Were you unable to attend act19, the CIA’s annual conference? Learn why actuaries should understand medical information on marijuana use, how actuarial training provides a natural segue into psychology, what actuaries need to know about national pharmacare, and meet some of the new Fellows and volunteer award winners recognized this year.
How do you know you’re hiring a professional?
In my nine-and-a-half years with the CIA, I’ve enjoyed many formal and informal conversations about professionalism. Several years ago, it was even part of the CIA’s strategic plan to better define what it means to be a professional.
Actuarial club visits – spring 2019
One of my final duties as President-Elect is to pay a visit to our local actuarial clubs, to speak to them about what’s happening in the CIA and what my priorities are for my upcoming term as President.
