VBA has recommenced!

We have totally redesigned the way VBA is taught!

This course run by ASOC will cover all of the important programming foundations you need to know to write successful programs in VBA, and will teach you how to write code to solve Actuarial problems quickly and efficiently.

For those of you that are applying for graduate positions and are looking for that something extra to put on your resume - this is your last chance! First year students are encouraged to attend and learn VBA early, as it will help in your assignments and is a useful tool. Second year students should attend as a refresher course and to receive certification.

There is a booklet produced by QED Actuarial about interview techniques and general career advice
