SOA Code of Conduct for Candidates

The Society of Actuaries' (SOA) Board of Directors took steps to maintain the value of its credentials by approving the implementation of a Code of Conduct for Candidates at its October 2008 board meeting. The Code requires that actuarial candidates who are not yet members of the SOA adhere to the high standards of conduct of the actuarial profession.

The Code of Conduct for Candidates was effective December 1, 2008. The most recent revisions to the Code were made June 25, 2023. SOA candidates are required to agree to adhere to the SOA Code of Conduct for Candidates when registering for any of the components of the Education system. This policy supports the fine reputation of the profession.
