Participate in the 7th EAA e-Conference on 'Data Science & Data Ethics'
The European Actuarial Academy (EAA), renowned for its commitment to excellence in actuarial training and CPD activities in Europe, is thrilled to announce its already 7th e-Conference, centred around the captivating theme of 'Data Science & Data Ethics'.
Discover the Future of AI, Data Science and Data Ethics
In an era marked by unprecedented technological advancements, the actuarial landscape has experienced profound transformations. The exponential growth of computational power and the abundance of data have converged and provide an exciting opportunity for the actuarial profession to redefine its boundaries and explore the ethical implications of this new field.
The role of actuaries is evolving at an incredible pace but remains incompletely defined. We are at a crucial point where a new understanding of the possibilities of actuarial science and its ethical obligations needs to be created.
