On 28 February, Department of Mathematics & Statistics has organised a Professional Body Briefing Session – Series #2 Chartered Insurance Institute for students in the Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, especially for students of BSC (Hons) in Actuarial Studies and Insurance. The event provides opportunities to students to meet with industry practitioners, and to gain valuable insights from guests’ sharing on work experience and case studies and how professional body’s continue learning can further help students to advance in their careers.
