Actuarial credentialing and exams

To become a qualified actuary, the actuarial credentialing and exam process usually requires passing a series of professional examinations over a period of several years.

In some countries, such as Denmark, most study takes place in a university setting. In others, such as the U.S., most study takes place during employment through a series of examinations. In the UK, and countries based on its process, there is a hybrid university-exam structure.
