General Insurance Article - European Actuarial Academy marks its tenth anniversary


Under the auspices of its first Risk Management Summit, the European Actuarial Academy (EAA) celebrated its first ten years in Frankfurt today. Founded in 2005 by the Actuarial Associations of Austria, Switzerland, The Netherlands and Germany the EAA has developed into Europe’s leading international Learning and Professional Development organisation for the actuarial profession as well as risk managers.

 “In order to meet the increasingly stringent professional requirements for actuarial services, one of our focuses will be Enterprise Risk Management“, announced Roland van den Brink, Chairman of the EAA Members Assembly, before an audience of around 100 risk management experts. To this end, the training propositions leading to the qualification as Certified Enterprise Risk Actuary (CERA) are expanded and the Risk Management Summit is to be held every year. 

 In the past EAA’s focus was on supporting Central and Eastern Europe, and in the coming years the educational centre will provide seminars throughout whole Continental Europe. The EAA will also offer more webinars, enabling actuaries from all over the continent to participate, live or via catch-up, from their offices, from home or even on the move. Mr. Van den Brink pointed out: “In times of tighter travel expenses budgets, this offers a solution for continuing professional development and enabling participants to have direct contact with our expert trainers and instructors. Because we are a not-for-profit organisation, we continuously strive to keep the participation costs low“.
