Hi, I'd like to ask about the requirement to create the documents from scratch. I understand we are not allowed to use electronic templates. But, is it ok to create my Word file (for the Audit trail and Summary) before the exam time starts? I would just do some basic formatting - insert page numbers, save it under the correct name etc. Is that ok? Or are the examiners checking when was the file created? Thanks
Make sure you've read the "Guide to CA2" on the IFoA website (the link is at the bottom of this page https://www.actuaries.org.uk/studyi...a2-model-documentation-analysis-and-reporting). It has a section on Professional Conduct and one of the points says: You are not permitted to use pre-prepared or copied electronic material in your exam submission. So you shouldn't be pre-preparing anything before the start of the exam. Sarah
Is it possible to copy from a previously made template (Word,Excel) and paste to your exam file? A template might just have generic headings and statements with some formatting..
See the above post here - my interpretation would be that is pre-prepared electronic material. You would need to ask the IFoA directly for their specific view. Sarah
