Module teams so far – Personal Reflections
17
+ Most of the module teams worked well
+ New volunteers -> widening pool of actuaries involved
+ New ideas – e.g. new CP3 exam style
+ May 2017 completion deadlines generally met
- Some bandwith issues
- Not all module teams were complete
- Limited non-UK expertise
- Time pressure
