==Certification==
In the United States, practicing actuaries must be members of either the Society of Actuaries (SOA) or the Casualty Actuarial Society (CSA). Members of the SOA generally work in the life insurance, health insurance, pension, and fincial services industries, while members of the CSA work in property and casualty insurance.
Members of both societies are granted two levels of membership: Associate and Fellow. A Fellow is recognized as a "full" Actuary, and may sign Letters of Actuarial Opinion. Both societies require a series of exams to obtain Fellowship; in general, the travel time to Fellow is generally between 7 and 10 years.
