Property & Casualty Resource Library

The Casualty Actuarial Society has developed a Property and Casualty Resource Library, created specifically for professors who teach actuarial science and related courses and are a member of Academic Central.

The library’s purpose is to house materials that a professor can use to develop or enhance a course on property and casualty actuarial techniques at the university level. The materials can also be used to incorporate property and casualty concepts into a broader course. The library is organized around a set of three sample syllabi and a menu of supporting resources.

Members of Academic Central may access the library.
