Know what to expect.
Then get into the work.
A programme in development to teach and assess how effectively you work with Agents on actuarial problems. You can try the Level I prototype now. Its feedback is provisional; it does not yet issue a formal credential.
Use your own compatible agent, such as ChatGPT, Claude or Codex, with the existing Acta connection. The module explains the connection in plain language and gives you a short-lived code to link your assessment. One connection handles both case data and your recorded work.
ThinkActuary evaluates the structured record created through the Acta MCP, alongside your final deliverable. Assessment considers your investigation, verification and professional judgement. The Level I POC requires an independent conversation with an AI examiner who challenges your actual project and follows up on your answers.
No. Asterra Group is our fictional financial services group, spanning insurance, medical aid, banking, investments and retirement. Cases use realistic synthetic data. You work with professional context and deliberately imperfect information without exposing real confidential company information.
No. This programme develops agentic actuarial capability alongside your actuarial knowledge and professional qualifications. It does not replace them.
The Level I POC is free to try now. Results are provisional and do not issue a formal credential. The proposed future Level I founding price is USD 199. Levels II and III are coming soon.
