Councils
Much of the CIA’s work is carried out by six volunteer councils, each of which oversees a number of committees, subcommittees and task forces staffed by member volunteers. These groups deal with the various aspects of actuarial practice, collect and disseminate information of interest to actuaries and liaise between the Institute and external organizations.
