Data Science: Re-defining future value of Actuaries Webinar series 2023

About the program

It has been quite some time that, Data Science became a key word in the contour of all professions with Machine learning and Artificial Intelligence as important sub-products. While actuaries traditionally involved in decision making on the basis of Mathematical logics and Statistical inferences, advancement of data science is expected to capture most of the actuarial domain with an impact of multiple disciplines like Mathematics, Statistics, Computer science, information science, Machine learning and Artificial intelligence.

The Data Science and its advancement is going to decide the future values of actuarial profession to a large extent. The Machine learning and Python trainings conducted by the Institute have lifted the confidence and value of many actuarial members who will be in the forefront of re-defining the role of actuaries in finance and risk management. Since Python is largely used in data science as a programming language, a 7.5 hours Python training is also included in this 70 hours training. Those who have already attended both Python and Machine learning webinar series recently conducted by the Institute may find this program as the next level of advanced learning.

Why Actuaries to learn Data Science?

The question as to how fast actuaries to catch up various disciplines of data science to be answered sooner than later for maintaining the unique space and role of actuaries in the market. An actuary with specialisation in data science to remain as an actuary for future;

Program schedule:

Webinars will start on 02 January 2023 which will be spread over 35 sessions of 2 hours each duration. Participants are expected to work on assignments on a regular basis to maintain the continuity of learning and practice.
