Reinsurance Insights: Career Paths was a fantastic event earlier in October. Students gained valuable insights into actuarial science and the diverse career opportunities within the field. We were so impressed with the interest and questions from the over 100 students that attended. One John Gray High School student replied "The event was very eye-opening and educative. We learnt about the actuarial science field and the different careers for the field. Meeting and asking questions about the actuarial science really made me think about and consider actuarial science as a career. The event was excellently set up and the provision of drinks and popcorn was greatly appreciated. All in all, fantastic experience!"

A great example from one our member firms, showcasing the reinsurance sector making a positive impact the community!
Nassau Re (Cayman) took great pride in continuing its sponsorship of the Pursuit of Excellence Foundation (PoE) on its annual Ready, Set, Learn program. This is the 4th year that Nassau Re (Cayman) donated funds to provide back-to-school supplies to Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac families. In true Nassau fashion, our team also got more deeply involved by providing hands-on support. Veronika Kiriuhin and Faith Dube donated and helped distribute Magic School Bus books at the PoE giveaway event. The books will introduce Actuarial-related careers to children in grades 3 to 5 and help inspire the next generation of actuarial professionals - an exciting career that is part superhero, part fortune teller, and part trusted advisor! #BEanACTUARY #nassaucares
