Who this is for:

  • Actuarial students
  • 0–3 years experience
  • Actuaries moving into life insurance


Who this is NOT for:

  • Senior life actuaries
  • Non-life specialists




Most actuarial students have the same problem:

  • You pass exams… but still can’t explain real work
  • You go to interviews… but struggle with practical questions
  • You work… but don’t fully understand what you’re doing


👉 This course fixes that gap.


I moved to the U.S. with actuarial exams… but no local experience.

I got rejected.

Not because I wasn’t smart.
But because I didn’t understand how real life insurance work actually happens.

That’s the gap no exam teaches.

It took me years to figure it out.

👉 This course gives you that in 5 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who is the primary audience for this course?

    The primary audience for this course are actuarial students, entry level actuaries and intermediate actuaries with 1 to 4 years of experience. However I believe Associates and Fellows will find certain modules to be beneficial, especially where they do not have prior experience on, and they can claim CPD credits for those.

  • Are spreadsheets available to be downloaded with the course for free?

    Yes. Many modules such as LDTI, PBR, IFRS17, Profit Measures, Experience Studies, Reinsurance etc. have spreadsheets included with them for download.

  • Is there an expiration date for the course?

    No. The course will be available for lifetime.

  • If I’m an Associate or Fellow, can I claim CPD credits for the time spent on this course?

    Under the US Qualification Standard (USQS) or the SOA CPD Requirement, this would be self-study credit (called “other” credit in the USQS.). The amount of credit would be based on how long it took someone to complete the course. CPD is supposed to be earned for something that broadens or expands actuary’s knowledge. For example if a valuation actuary attends the pricing lesson and it broadens their pricing knowledge, they’ll have to make sure they only claim the time spent on the pricing course.

  • I have questions related to the online course. How can I reach out?

    If you have any questions related to purchasing the course, or any other issues in general related to the website, please reach out to [email protected]

  • Are there any pre-requisites for the course?

    Although there are no pre-requisites per se, the course expects the attendee has the basic level understanding of actuarial science, and has already either started pursuing the actuarial profession or started taking the exams. Fresh college graduates with no prior actuarial interest will find some lessons to be technical.

Testimonials on Life Actuarial Course

Syed Raza


I’m a life actuary with 17+ years of experience across consulting, insurance, and actuarial software.

I’ve worked on:

  • Pricing
  • Valuation
  • Financial reporting (LDTI, IFRS17)
  • M&A and due diligence


Across companies in the U.S., Dubai, and internationally.

But more importantly -

I’ve been exactly where you are.

I struggled early in my career not because of exams…

but because I didn’t understand how real actuarial work actually happens.

That’s what this course fixes.

Instead of theory, I teach you:

👉 how life insurance actually works

👉 what actuaries actually do day-to-day

👉 what interviewers expect you to know

Today, I run Actuarial 360 Solutions, where I work with life insurance companies on real-world actuarial problems.
