The Society of Actuaries (SOA) has prepared a Guide to SOA Written Exams  designed to provide general advice and guidance for candidates undertaking written answer examinations. The guide is available on the SOA website free of charge. All candidates preparing for SOA written exams will want to take advantage of this important study aid.

The SOA is also working to prepare courseware that is specific to each fellowship examination and is intended to effectively guide candidates' study. The courseware for the new Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) exam, which will have its first administration in the fall of 2012, will be the first courseware to be developed. If it is successful, courseware for the rest of the fellowship level exams will follow.
