The Actuary Accelerator Community (AAC) offers a comprehensive, step-by-step program designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and getting that first actuarial job or internship.

By integrating the AAC into your school’s offerings, you’ll give your students access to expert guidance, hands-on experience, and the edge they need to stand out in today’s competitive job market.

Actuarial Students Are Struggling.

We surveyed actuarial students to find out which aspects of the career they might be struggling with, if any. What we discovered might surprise you:

– (survey)% of students have concerns about their ability to get a job post-graduation

– (other survey stats)

These findings align with our research, which states that only 27% of Exam P passers will go on to secure an entry-level actuarial job. The path from student to professional actuary is filled with hurdles, and many students aren’t getting the support they need to overcome them.

The Actuarial Challenge:

Common Student Concerns

Post-secondary students pursuing actuarial science often face significant challenges as they prepare for the competitive job market. Students at your school are most likely dealing with…

(BELOW: relevant image on left, text on right)

• Difficulty Passing Actuarial Exams
  Actuarial exams are notoriously tough, requiring deep mathematical understanding and extensive study time. Students often struggle to balance coursework and exam preparation, leading to delays or burnout.
• Lack of Practical Experience
  Many students find it hard to gain real-world experience through internships or co-op programs while still in school, which puts them at a disadvantage in the job market.
• Uncertainty About the Profession
  Students may not fully understand what being an actuary entails or what their specializations may look like until much later in their studies, creating uncertainty about their career path.
• Competitive Job Market
  The actuarial field is highly competitive, with students worrying about securing a job post-graduation, especially if they haven’t passed enough exams or gained practical experience.
• Financial Strain
  The financial burden of education and actuarial exam fees can be overwhelming, especially when students are unable to secure a related job or paid internship to cover their expenses.
• Lack of Mentorship and Community
  Many students don’t have access to experienced actuaries for guidance, leaving them unsure about which qualifications are important and how to get them. Plus, the rigorous nature of actuarial programs can make it hard for students to connect with others who understand the unique challenges they face, leading to feelings of isolation.

The Solution

By integrating our program into your school, you can help your students overcome these challenges and succeed in the competitive actuarial job market.

1. Bridge the Gap Between Academics and Industry

Students often struggle to connect what they learn in the classroom with real-world actuarial demands. Our program bridges this gap, ensuring your students are prepared for the challenges they’ll face in their future careers.

2. Beyond Exams: What Employers Really Want

Passing exams is no longer enough to secure a job. In 2024, only 66% of employers required one or more exams, down from 74% in 2021. Today’s employers look for more well-rounded candidates who also possess soft skills like communication (requested by 86% of employers in 2024, up from 74% in 2021). The AAC equips students with both technical and soft skills, preparing them to stand out in the competitive job market.

3. Real-World Experience with Excel and More

74% of employers request Excel proficiency, but many students don’t learn how to use Excel in an actuarial context. Our program focuses on using Excel for real-world actuarial tasks, giving students a valuable, job-ready skill that can set them apart in the job market.

4. Confidence Through Practical Learning

Through hands-on projects that simulate real actuarial work, the AAC helps students build a portfolio of experience and gain confidence in their abilities. This preparation ensures they’re ready to hit the ground running when they graduate.

5. Career-Ready Graduates

Schools that partner with the AAC don’t just produce graduates—they produce career-ready professionals with the skills, experience, and confidence to succeed. Integrating the AAC into your school’s tuition program ensures that your students are well-prepared to secure competitive entry-level actuarial jobs.

Even High-Performing Students Need Help

The abundance of entry-level job candidates means that employers have been able to set the bar high when it comes to qualifications.

Unfortunately, that means that “good” is no longer good enough.

Even students with good qualifications risk blending into the crowd. They might have the right skills, but they struggle to differentiate themselves from other candidates.

It’s a concept called “candidate camouflage” because students feel invisible to employers. They blend in with all the other candidates, and actuarial employers don’t express interest in them, despite their best efforts. 

It makes many future actuaries feel discouraged, like it’s impossible to get a job.

It makes many future actuaries feel like they want to give up even after they’ve put their whole heart into this dream career.

Oftentimes, future actuaries don’t even realize that they’re being affected by candidate camouflage.

They just know that they aren’t getting the opportunities they’ve worked hard for.

What The Research Says

A 2024 (**update this with our 2024 study/graph) study of entry-level actuarial jobs found that there are 5 primary qualifications that most actuarial employers are looking for in job candidates.

When students have these 5 qualifications, they are way more likely to get an actuarial job.

Those qualifications are shown in the chart below, indicating which % of employers preferred each qualification (data based on what employers actually asked for in their job posts).

The difference between a student who gets hired and one who doesn’t is how they balance these 5 qualifications.

Most students focus really hard on 1 or 2 of these qualifications and neglect the rest. They don’t realize which skills employers are looking for, or how to get them. They often struggle to find a job because employers are looking for someone that is more well-rounded.

In our program, we provide students the resources and support to help them achieve all 5 qualifications, dedicate adequate time to growing and nurturing their network, and create a resume that matches industry standards.

How It Works

Becoming an amazing candidate for actuarial roles – a Top Candidate – starts with the Top Candidate Method.

The Top Candidate Method is a 5-phase plan that guides students every step of the way so that they can avoid getting stuck in the candidate camouflage trap.

The plan gradually builds a student’s qualifications (aside from “education”) up to the level that actuarial employers look for.

Students following this plan are on the quickest route to becoming a Top Actuarial Candidate, so that they can differentiate themselves from other job candidates, grow a treasure map network and get into their actuarial dream job within just 12 months.

The Top Candidate Method is what I teach students in our signature program…

Bridging the Gaps in Traditional Education

While college courses equip students with strong mathematical foundations, the reality is that today’s actuarial employers are looking for much more than just math skills.

The actuarial profession demands practical experience, technical expertise, and real-world problem-solving—skills that many traditional academic programs don’t fully address.

That’s where we come in.

We’ve created the AAC to complement your students’ academic journey by offering targeted, actuarial-specific training that goes beyond the classroom.

With expert guidance, hands-on projects, and step-by-step resources, the AAC helps students build the well-rounded qualifications they need to stand out in a competitive job market.

We’ll help your students get industry-ready.

While your institution provides the critical mathematical foundation, we ensure students are job-ready with real-world skills and industry knowledge. 

Working together, we can help you students secure their actuarial dream job by adding real-world skills and industry knowledge to their toolkit.
