Congratulations, Nick!

Congratulations to my handsome husband for completing and passing the FAP1 Interim Assessment (ha! Don't ask me what that all stands for, I just know he passed!) lol.... Sorry if it sounds like I am tooting his horn a little (b/c I am!), but I am just so proud of him! :))))

Now, you can send up a little prayer as he is taking the next one FAP1 Final Assessment (is that the right name?) in 2 weeks!

So - many people, (me included) are curious what he has done and what he has to go...So here is my attempt at answering that:

P - Probability (completed Fall '07)

FM - Financial Mathematics (completed Spring '08)

MFE - Models: Financial Economics (completed Fall '08)

MLC - Models: Life Contingencies (completed Spring '09)

C - Construction and Evaluation of Models (completed Fall '09)

The he completed some Modules (I think they are like projects)

IA - Interim Assessment (Completed Spring '10)

FA - Final Assessment (Taking this week)

APC - Actuarial Practice Course (Summer 2010)

ASA - Associate in Society of Actuaries (Summer 2010)

Then there is an essay he has to write...

Then there are these that I don't understand at all b/c they are a year away! :)

FETE - Fall 2010

APM - Spring 2011

FSA - Summer 2011 - This is the "Fellow in the Society of Actuaries" Which is what he has been striving for all along. This will be his "title" You'll see :

Nick Fiechter, F.S.A.

(Can't wait to see that! Then no more testing! :) WooHoo!)

(Not that he ever studies at home anyway! lol)
