Actuarial Data Science – Advanced

12. September, 09:00 - 14. September, 17:00

Organised by the EAA – European Actuarial Academy GmbH in cooperation with the Aktuarvereinigung Österreichs (AVÖ).

This is part two of four courses (seminar and exam) to obtain the additional title Certified Actuarial Data Scientist by the AVÖ and/or DAV.

Sign up via the EAA page

Participants who do not hold an AVÖ or DAV membership have also the opportunity to obtain a newly established EAA Certificate in Actuarial Data Science by taking part in all four modules and the corresponding exams. It is planned to offer all four modules in 2024 and 2025.

All courses are open to interested actuaries to deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of Actuarial Data Science (without exams).

Introduction
Due to technological progress in connection with Data Science and Digitalization, summarized under the buzzword Big Data, a plethora of opportunities and challenges for the industry is arising.

Technological developments have now also reached the insurance industry and thus have a direct impact on the working world of actuaries.

Under the heading Actuarial Data Science, the procedures and methods of data mining are embedded in the actuarial context. These range from mathematics-driven statistical methods for derivation of insights from data to computation-driven methods sometimes summarized as machine learning. As a result of almost unlimited computing capacity through cloud computing and wide availability of training data, tried and tested methods of machine learning, such as artificial neural networks, are experiencing a renaissance in theory and practice.

This web session is the second part of a four-part series at the German Actuarial Association (DAV). In this online training, we will expand on and deepen some of the topics already known from the basic seminar, discussing further important techniques in the context of deep learning and data storage. It is based on the learning objectives of the DAV for Actuarial Data Science Advanced, which is part of the actuarial training in Germany.

Participants

This web session is suited for actuaries (and actuaries in training), interested persons and for everyone who wants to get to know the topic (more precisely). Previous knowledge in Actuarial Data Science is helpful, but not mandatory. A solid mathematical education is necessary to follow some of the concepts that will be presented. A laptop is not necessary but can be helpful.

Technical Requirements
Please check with your IT department if your firewall and computer settings support web session participation (the programme Zoom will be used for this online training). Please also make sure to join the web session with a stable internet connection.

On Wednesday, 4 September 2024, 10:00 o’clock Central European Summer Time (CEST), there will be a test session offered to all registered participants to test the software. This test session is mandatory.

Purpose and Nature

Based on the building blocks known from Basic, we want to deepen some topics and present further important topics from the field of Actuarial Data Science.

In this three-day training, we cover a wide range of topics. This includes an advanced introduction to the concepts and terms of artificial intelligence, modern data management concepts (with a special look at insurance companies), aspects of data protection and the mathematical and statistical concepts of data mining. On our way, we touch different use cases in the actuarial environment. To this end, we provide a brief insight into the widely used language Python. The training rounds off with principles for the ethical handling of artificial intelligence in the insurance environment.

Language

The language of the seminar will be English.

Lecturers

Prof Dr Fabian Transchel
holds the endowed chair of e+s Rück for Data Science at Harz University of Applied Sciences, Wernigerode, Germany. He’s an avid proponent of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in the insurance sector and has been instrumental in innovating motor insurance through telematics technologies, these days also teaching Actuarial Data Science for DAA and EAA.

Prof Dr Jonas Offtermatt
is a professor of programming and mathematics at DHBW Stuttgart. He has been working as a programming actuary since 2015 and has been teaching at DAA since 2019. With previous leadership roles in the insurance industry, he possesses extensive experience of IT-management and software development.

Wolfgang Abele
joined Deloitte 2018 as Senior Manager in the actuarial Non-Life team. He has more than 18 years of experience in the consulting and insurance industry, having worked for HDI Versicherung AG, MSG Consulting und Allianz. Before he joined Deloitte Wolfgang was head of the unit Reserving & Reinsurance. Throughout his career, he was involved in a large number of actuarial projects, in pricing, reserving (IFRS, local GAAP, Solvency II), internal modelling and risk management. His focus was on predictive modelling, analytics, and process optimization. He has extensive knowledge in the programming language R and gives seminars on actuarial data science for the Deutsche Aktuar-Akademie (DAA).

Dr Marc Busse
is heading the department for software solutions within the microscopy division of ZEISS. Previously, he has been working for seven years in the reinsurance sector as an actuary with focus on data science related topics. Marc is a certified actuary (DAV) and holds a PhD in theoretical physics.

Dr René Külheim
is a mathematician and actuary (DAV) at PTA GmbH, where he heads the artificial intelligence department. In addition to data science-based project work in the financial sector, he is responsible for cloud-based software products with AI components.
