The committee’s current map of article ideas and ‘works-in-progress’ for Actuaries Digital features a ream of potential interviewees  for ‘Leading Actuary’ and ‘Actuaries at Play’ profiles and other – long and short – pieces that showcase the value of actuaries to Australian business, community and government.

Technical pieces are welcome, as well as well more general or ‘human’ stories; from essays to book reviews, to opinion pieces; laughable ‘bad stats’ or even a reflection on your career journey; defining moments as an actuary or tips on explaining what you do at a dinner party. Whatever your muse, we want to hear from you!

The editorial committee and HQ Communications team would like to sincerely thank all contributors to the site so far for enriching the profession through thoughtful reflection and analysis on current and interesting issues of relevance to actuaries and the industries they work in.

WIN! Each quarter, the Institute awards the top three most popular articles a $50 Dymocks voucher. Check out the most-read articles in Q1 and Q2.
