Membership Application

  • If you would like to become an ACIA, FCIA, Affiliate, or Correspondent, please complete your application form for enrollment in the CIA (valid from July 16, 2019, to October 15, 2019).

     

    If you are applying for the Fellow (FCIA) designation, please review the following documentation:

Please note that all requirements for Fellowship must normally be completed (with the exception of the Society of Actuaries' (SOA) FAC or the CIA Professionalism Workshop, if applicable) before submission of an application.

Five-Year Expiry on Professionalism Education Credit for Membership
Candidates must complete the membership eligibility requirements and be confirmed as ACIA within five years of completing the CIA professionalism requirement. This also applies for former members who have let their membership lapse and who wish to be reinstated, either as an ACIA or FCIA. Current members of the CIA who maintain their membership in good standing will not lose their professionalism education credit.

Non-members who obtained their professionalism credit on or before December 31, 2014 must become ACIA by January 1, 2020. To meet this deadline, candidates must submit a completed ACIA application by October 15, 2019. If approved, ACIA membership will be effective November 30, 2019.

Professionalism credit obtained after January 1, 2015 is valid for a period of five years from the date of successful completion; therefore, the first expiries will occur early in 2020.
