ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The CAS University Liaison Program was established in 1999 and has grown to over 200 CAS members who have volunteered to be liaisons to colleges and universities. The program is managed by the University Engagement Advisory Working Group, and matches CAS members with a university to provide academics and students direct support and guidance from a practicing P&C actuary.
