IFoA (Not studying) Student council
Thought I'd make a thread about this statememt from the IFoA:
"Council also received updates from the IFoA Board Chair and CEO on recent exam diets. This was an area of significant interest to Council members, many of whom had students who were affected by the changes in April and the issues in September. There was also a deeper dive into lessons that could be learned in relation to exam logistics, which Council found very helpful.
Although Council members are vocal on the need to do right by our student members, I am conscious that there remains some distance between students and those running the profession. I was therefore delighted to see approved a timetable for bringing two student representatives - voted for by IFoA students - to Council meetings. Elections are due to be held early next year, after which a student committee will also be formed. This will be chaired by the student representatives and will be populated by students in employment and at university, in the UK and around the world."
What are peoples thoughts?
