Hi
I want to discuss the practicalities of being a Nearly Qualified vs Associate/Fellow.
Nearly qualified pays student subs of £282. Fellowship subs are £690, or Associate fees of £456.
Is it true that a Nearly Qualified actuary does not have to do any CPD? But Fellows and Associates would. It seems CPD involves attending events like conferences or sit more exams which would be very expensive unless your company pays for it.
Also is there any point in a nearly qualified who gives up the exams to stay a members of the profession? Do they remove/cancel your exam passes - I once heard a rumour they did. Although I doubt this is the case nowadays when they hand out certificates for passing CT series and the CFI.
