S:LT:L2: Uses latest technology (e.g., cloud-based platforms, Python/R, version control, containers, Continuous Integration /Continuous Development, machine learning techniques for tabular/structured datasets, data formats such as JSON and Parquet) to solve standard business problems within the actuary's area of practice.
T:AN:L2: Designs analytic steps to validate signals vs noises and provide justification for insights.
