Registration is Now Open for the CAS/SOA Diversity Symposium

The Joint Casualty Actuarial Society and Society of Actuaries Committee on Inclusion, Equity, and Diversity (JCIED) is holding its second annual Diversity Symposium on July 31, 2024 in Philadelphia. The Symposium will bring together CAS and SOA diversity champions, and you are invited to participate!

By attending the Symposium, you will have the opportunity to connect with other diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) champions in the actuarial space, and learn about different approaches, challenges, and successes in enhancing DE&I in the actuarial profession - at an industry/professional level, an affinity group level, and within your company.

Register

The JCIED is inviting the submission of ideas and proposals for Symposium sessions and presentations, with a goal to offer an intimate experience for creating connections through a collaborative, discussion-based program. Find more details on the call for session ideas here.

How to Submit Session Ideas and Proposals

Please submit your session ideas by June 12 through our online submission form. Ideas will be reviewed by the Symposium planning working group, which will respond to all who submit an idea or full proposal.
