DCU students, who are registered on specified undergraduate degree programmes of the School of Mathematical Sciences, may, on the basis of their DCU examination results, be recommended to the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) for exemption from taking certain specified professional examinations ofthe IFoA. Further details on the examinations on the IFoA can be found on their website ([www.actuaries.org.uk](www.actuaries.org.uk)).  \nii. There are two mechanisms by which exemptions can be gained, namely under (1) an Accreditation Agreement (AA) or (2) a Subject-by-Subject Exemption Recognition Agreement (ERA) between DCU and the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.  \niii. The Faculty of Science & Health and the School of Mathematical Sciences shall facilitate these arrangements under the terms and conditions set out in this document, which are valid for the academic year 2012/2013 and subsequently. The right is reserved to amend these terms and conditions or to discontinue the scheme in subsequent academic years.  \n2. Terms Used in this Document  \nIn this document, some terms are abbreviated:  \ni. The School means the School of Mathematical Sciences in DCU.  \nii. The relevant undergraduate degree programmes of the School are the BSc in Actuarial Mathematics (accredited programme) and the BSc in Financial Mathematics (ERA only) .  \niii. The Faculty Office means the administrative office of the Faculty of Health & Science in DCU.  \niv. Independent Examiners refers to the examiners appointed by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries who make recommendations as to which DCU students should gain exemptions as per the accreditation or ERA agreements.  \nv. If the Independent Examiners base their recommendation for an exemption in a professional examination of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) on a student’s performance in a DCU module, such a module is termed an actuarial module and the final examination is called an actuarial module examination.  \nvi. In what follows, we may use the abbreviations ACM for the BSc in Actuarial Mathematics, FIM for the BSc in Financial Mathematics, PAB for the Progression & Awards Board, IFoA for the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries, CT for Core Technical, CP for Core Principles, AA for the Accreditation Agreement and ERA for the Exemption Recognition Agreement.  \n3. Gaining Exemptions from Actuarial Examinations  \ni. To qualify as an actuary with the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) one must pass the professional examinations of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. Please see the IFoA website ([www.actuaries.org.uk](www.actuaries.org.uk)) for details on the routes to qualification as an actuary with the IFoA.  \nii. As an alternative to sitting some of the IFoA’s professional examinations undergraduates on certain DCU undergraduate programmes (see §2) may be exempted (by the IFoA) from specified professional examinations, on the basis of recommendations from Independent Examiners approved by the IFoA. Students may claim such exemptions following successful completion of their degree programme (see  \n§8) . The exemptions only map to certain IFoA professional examinations as described below and further ","cbCaiaVqWVYusgVc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaVqWVYusgVc","pdf",594336,"English","# Introduction\n# Terms Used in This Document\n# Gaining Exemptions from Actuarial Examinations\n# The Accreditation Agreement (AA)\n# The Exemption Recognition Agreement (ERA)\n# General Conditions Relating to Exemptions\n# Communicating with the University\n# Claiming Your Exemptions\n# Approved List of Calculators\n# Mapping of DCU Modules to IFoA Examinations","[{\"question\":\"What are the two mechanisms for obtaining IFoA exemptions mentioned in the document?\",\"answer\":\"Exemptions can be gained through either an Accreditation Agreement (AA) or a Subject-by-Subject Exemption Recognition Agreement (ERA) between DCU and the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA).\"},{\"question\":\"Which DCU degree programmes does the document say are relevant for exemptions?\",\"answer\":\"The relevant degree programmes are the BSc in Actuarial Mathematics (accredited programme) and the BSc in Financial Mathematics (ERA only).\"},{\"question\":\"How do exemption recommendations map to IFoA examinations under Curriculum 2019 versus earlier curricula?\",\"answer\":\"For students commencing from September 2019, exemption recommendations map to IFoA Curriculum 2019 Core Principles professional examinations.
