Our program fosters leadership skills while supporting employees’ progress towards attainment of Fellowship with the Society of Actuaries (FSA).

Rotations cover all product lines and include actuarial functions such as Predictive Modeling, Pricing, Valuation, Asset Liability Management, Forecasting, Enterprise Risk Management, and Investment Management. The program is managed by a committee of actuarial leaders, including our Chief Actuary, that actively mentor and support students. Talcott looks towards the Actuarial Student Program for our next generation of Actuarial leaders.

Students are expected to complete at least one component of the FSA pathway every 18 months. Program support includes:

- Covering the cost of exam fees, module fees, and study materials such as textbooks, study manuals, and online courses;
- Generous paid study time for exams and modules; and
- A community of individuals studying together.

In addition to competitive company benefits, students receive raises for passing exams and first-time pass bonuses. Students that attain their ASA and FSA designations are also eligible for awards. Promotions are based on job performance and exam progress.

The Actuarial Student Program is committed to developing well-rounded Actuarial leaders. Many opportunities supplement rotational on-the-job training and technical knowledge gained through the FSA pathway. Opportunities include:

- Training courses focused on critical soft skills, such as business writing, negotiation techniques, and managerial skills;
