FAC 140 March

[B.R]

I tried to launch the gotomeeting, but the screen sharing button is not available, do you know how we could share the screen during the presentation?

I got the same issue as B.R. and emailed FAC yesterday. Their answer below:

“You will not have the screenshare ability just yet, but once your session begins your facilitator will be able to give you access to this feature when it’s your turn to present.”

not sure how to test it prior to the session then

[B.R]

 

Thanks for your information, Isabella_vu. Perhaps, there is nothing we can do except finishing the assignments.

To those of you who are attending in-person, this is the feedback I got from the SOA:

Looks like we don’t have to do anything as we are enrolled automatically.

thanks for posting this… I never got a reply.

What do you all think about the exercises?  Not as bad as I expected, tbh.  I find the case studies fairly thought provoking and relevant to what they’re trying to accomplish.

Trying to finish up today.  Let’s see how the 2nd deliverable goes.

Anyone here flying from the US?

[Bears Fan Dave]

I’m in CT, so not sure if I’ll be flying or driving.

[ABC Actuary]

I’ll be flying from the US. When are you flying?

[Actuary0]

I will be flying on Sunday from Chicago.

[ABC Actuary]

Do we need to have a negative COVID test result within 24 hours prior to our flight back to the US? If it is needed, Where and how do we make an appointment in Toronto?

[Actuary0]

ABC Actuary- Thanks for the note, I just research it and it seems like testing requirement is only applicable for those flying. On your question, I think it’s worth asking SOA in the next 2 weeks, hopefully requirement can change by then.

Does anyone know how could we present identification during the virtual FAC sessions? Just show our identification on the webcam?

We gotta do the research on our own.

We can do a rapid antigen test at the Toronto Airport:

Results within 30 minutes

@B.R.: checked with my friend and yes we show the ID via webcam

Does anyone know why there is still an option to cancel the virtual meeting while the registration timeline has passed?

do we get CPD for the FAC eLearning?  Feels like we certainly should.  Anyone have any insight and/or thoughts around whether it would count as professionalism credit?
