The CAS was proud to be a Platinum Sponsor of the Gamma Iota Sigma (GIS) Annual International Conference last week in Dallas!  We had a great time connecting with faculty, students, and industry partners throughout the event.

As part of our involvement, the CAS hosted a booth in the exhibit hall where participants could learn more about the P&C career path. Thank you to everyone that stopped by as well as the CAS volunteers who provided valuable insight and information to students about their experience in the P&C field.

The CAS also hosted a panel entitled Risk in the Driver’s Seat: Navigating the World of Automated Vehicles. The panel discussed the risk surrounding automated vehicles and provided insight into the complex intersection between semi and fully automated vehicle technology and insurance. Thank you to Roosevelt Mosely, FCAS, Pinnacle Actuarial Resources, Barbara Ingraham, Verisk, Chris Nyce, FCAS, KPMG and Erin Olson, FCAS, USAA, for participating in a thoughtful program filled with great discussion between attendees and panelists.
