　　*Starting with the November 2003 examination session, CAS Exam 3 does not count towards meeting the requirement for SOA Course 3.

　　** An experience waiver may be granted to candidates who have successfully completed Courses 1-4 and one of Courses 5, 6 or 8; and who can demonstrate that they have at least four years of responsible actuarial experience. Candidates may apply for such a waiver by contacting ombudsperson@soa.org

　　Associateship Professionalism Course

　　The Associateship Professionalism Course is an additional requirement for the ASA designation and may be taken after completing Courses 1-4. The course will be offered at the Society’s Spring and Annual Meetings and at other sites throughout the year.

　　3. Requirements for Fellowship

　　Candidates, earning their designation via the examination process, cannot attain Fellowship without having satisfied requirements for Associateship. Candidates may not attend the Fellowship Admissions Course (FAC) until they have completed all other Fellowship educational requirements. The FAC is required of all candidates for Fellowship (see Section 3c.3 for a possible exception in limited circumstances).

　　Candidates who desire Fellowship in the Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA) must complete the Society’s Fellowship requirements, including completion of the Fellowship Admissions Course, as well as any other CIA requirements. Complete details are in the CIA Yearbook.

　　a. Professional Development Requirement

　　The PD requirement of the SOA curriculum serves to address topics that the practitioner will need throughout his/her career, including those that are country-specific, regulatory, or otherwise transitory in nature. Satisfying the PD requirement at the Fellowship level occurs after completing the formal course of examinations and precedes eligibility for the FAC to attain the FSA designation.

　　The candidate must obtain a minimum of 50 units of eligible education within a two-year period, with at least 35 units coming from the completion of suitable formal professional development programs (seminars and symposia, meeting sessions, professional examinations, and courses), and 15 units from the completion of a professional project and communication of the relevant aspects of the project.

　　b. Fellowship Admissions Course

　　The Fellowship Admissions Course is the final requirement for Fellowship and is required of all candidates for Fellowship. It is offered several times a year.

　　c. Mutual Recognition

　　The FSA designation may also be granted to Fellows of the Institute of Actuaries, Faculty of Actuaries, Institute of Actuaries of Australia and the Actuarial Society of Ireland via the terms of our Mutual Recognition agreements with these organizations. Individuals seeking Fellowship via Mutual Recognition must meet the following requirements:

　　have attained Fellowship in the Institute, the Faculty, the Institute of Australia or the Actuarial Society of Ireland by examination and not in recognition of membership of another actuarial association;

　　be a Fellow in good standing of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA), or Member in good standing of the American Academy of Actuaries (AAA), or full member in good standing of other actuarial associations designated from time to time by the Society of Actuaries Board of Governors;

　　have attended and passed the Society of Actuaries Fellowship Admissions Course (FAC), or its equivalent as recognized by the Society of Actuaries, in the five years prior to application;

　　have satisfied the Society of Actuaries Professional Development (PD) requirements, or its equivalent as recognized by the Society of Actuaries, in the five years prior to application.
