What is Pathway 2 and who is it for?
This pathway is designed for candidates who attained a full or partial Associate designation from another recognized actuarial organization and want to become an ACIA and FCIA through the CIA’s education and exams. Pathway 2 candidates do not plan to use the examinations or become a Fellow of another actuarial organization. It is also for candidates from countries with which the CIA does not have a mutual recognition agreement.
