SOA Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates

Updated 2/15/2019

This Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates (Terms and Conditions) applies to all Society of Actuaries (SOA) e-Learning accessed and/or delivered on the SOA e-Learning system, and to participation in or use of Explorer. This includes but is not limited to: the Fundamentals of Actuarial Practice (FAP) course; FSA modules; the Decision Making and Communication (DMAC) module; any associated exercises and assessments; and any interaction among or use by e-Learning Candidates in connection with Explorer.

The term “course” includes all modules, exercises, assessments and all associated materials delivered by the SOA e-Learning system. The term “assessment” refers to the FAP Interim Assessment and Final Assessment and the DMAC Assignment. The term “submission” refers to any document uploaded to the e-Learning system such as End-of-Module Exercises and assessments. “Explorer” includes online programs and services providing information about e-Learning Candidates and/or facilitating contact and interaction within the Learning Companion.

The standards set forth in these Terms and Conditions may seem stricter than those to which you are accustomed in other examination and e-Learning environments. The SOA maintains these strict standards because the courses, assessments and submissions are such a significant part of a candidate’s career. Therefore, equitable administration of SOA e-Learning and enforcement of the highest standards of conduct cannot be emphasized too strongly.

The SOA retains the right to modify these Terms and Conditions at any time with or without advance notice. All e-Learning registrants are required to comply with the most recently posted version of the Terms and Conditions.

Learning Companion Participation and Use

“Learning Companion” shall mean the online tool provided by the Society of Actuaries (“SOA”) that allows Users to engage with each other in real-time, either through groups related to the examinations, modules, and/or assessments they are currently enrolled in, or through direct messages to other Users. The SOA may add new features and educational resources to Learning Companion from time to time.

 

Proper Use of Learning Companion

  • Users are encouraged to use Learning Companion for appropriate collaboration and discussion on approved assessments and modules, including FAP modules, FSA modules, the FAP Final Assessment, and as otherwise permitted under the Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates.  All use of the Learning Companion should follow the letter and spirit of the Code of Professional Conduct and/or SOA's Code of Conduct for Candidates, as applicable.
  • Users may not use or attempt to use Learning Companion for commercial purposes. Contacts and communications initiated through Learning Companion may not include advertisements for goods or services, "spam," solicitations, chain letters, surveys, pyramid schemes or other material considered unprofessional.
  • Users should not use Learning Companion to harass, discriminate against, or otherwise bother other Users, entities, or individuals displayed in Learning Companion.  Users may not use Learning Companion in a manner or for a purpose that could violate federal or state antitrust laws. Users may not use Learning Companion to promote or provide instructional information about illegal activities or for any purpose that may be illegal.
  • Misusing Learning Companion to engage in improper collaboration, sharing, discussion on assessments/modules where discussion is not allowed, and/or sharing your module/assessment materials through Learning Companion is a violation of these Learning Companion terms and the Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates, and may also be a violation of the applicable code of conduct.

SOA Monitoring of Learning Companion

  • The SOA monitors the discussion in the Group forums only for compliance with these Learning Companion terms and the Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates.  The purpose of the Learning Companion is to provide a place for Users to connect; SOA staff and volunteers will not be participating in the groups’ discussions.
  • The SOA values and respects your privacy, and DOES NOT monitor the private direct message feature.  All communications through those channels are considered private and confidential to the Users involved.  However, all Users are reminded of their responsibility to notify the SOA of any action or communication that violates these Learning Companion terms and/or the Terms and Conditions Agreement for e-Learning Candidates, which may necessarily include screenshots of direct messages involved in the violation.

Data Protection

  • Access to the Learning Companion is available to any individual who has purchased an SOA e-Learning course/module/assessment and who opts-in to the Learning Companion. Users can control what personal information can be seen by others; the only personal data shared is what the User decides to share. Users will only be able to participate in the Groups that correspond to the e-Learning products they have purchased, so by participating in the Groups, a User is making other Users aware that he/she is working on that module/exercise/assessment, only as identified by his/her chosen on-screen name. The SOA uses the information provided in and from Learning Companion in conformity with the SOA Privacy Policy  .

Proprietary Rights and License

  • All trademarks, copyright, and other intellectual property rights of any nature in Learning Companion together with the underlying software code are owned either directly by the SOA or by their licensors.

  • Learning Companion is currently made available to User for your personal, non-commercial use. The SOA reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time and for any reason, to (i) amend or withdraw Learning Companion, (ii) change the terms and conditions upon which Learning Companion is provided, (iii) charge for Learning Companion in accordance with these Learning Companion terms, (iv) or, without notice, terminate or otherwise limit User’s access to Learning Companion in the event that the SOA believes that the User is in breach of or has failed to comply with any of Learning Companion terms.
  • If you use Learning Companion on your mobile device, you should remember that your terms of agreement with your mobile network provider will still apply. As a result, you may be charged by your mobile provider for the cost of data for the duration of the connection while accessing Learning Companion. The SOA accepts no liability for any charges or fees associated with mobile use of Learning Companion.

Availability

  • The SOA will use reasonable efforts to make Learning Companion available at all times. However, User acknowledges Learning Companion may be affected by factors outside of the SOA’s reasonable control and may be rendered unavailable during periods of maintenance. The SOA does not accept any responsibility whatsoever for unavailability of Learning Companion, or any difficulty or inability to access content or any other communication system failure which may result in Learning Companion being unavailable.

Discipline

Failure to adhere to the Terms and Conditions will result in disciplinary action by the SOA’s Education Committee.  Further discipline is possible under the Candidate Code of Conduct for candidates who are not SOA members, or the Member Code of Conduct for candidates who are also members of the SOA.

 

Disciplinary Action For Candidates

Cheating, any attempt to cheat, assisting others to cheat, participating in cheating in any manner, engaging and/or attempting to engage in any improper conduct, such as described in the examples listed below, is a serious violation, resulting in the disqualification of your submission and subjecting you to SOA disciplinary action. In addition to submission disqualification, disciplinary actions for violations include, but are not limited to, a prohibition against continuing with the course(s), other SOA examinations, and/or e-Learning courses for a specified period, ranging from one year to a lifetime ban. If your e-Learning course expires during or after your ban, you will be required to re-purchase the course and all previously completed exercises will need to be redone and submitted for grading.

Individuals who violate any Learning Companion or Explorer rules will be subject to the full range of disciplinary action, up to and including a lifetime ban.

The SOA reserves the right to initiate disciplinary actions at any time, even if you have already completed and earned credit for a course or assessment and have obtained the ASA or FSA designation. A designation earned under false pretenses will be revoked. In the event of a designation removal, notification of such action may be posted on the SOA Web site and may be published in The Actuary publication.

A complete description of the SOA disciplinary procedures is posted on Discipline section of the SOA Web site.

 

Plagiarism, Collusion and Collaboration

Plagiarism is a form of cheating and is strictly prohibited on all e-Learning submissions. The SOA uses the following definition of plagiarism from Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, 10th Edition:

To plagiarize is “to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own: use (a created production) without crediting the source: to commit literary theft: present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source.” 

Collusion is a form of cheating and is strictly prohibited on all e-Learning submissions. The SOA uses the following definition of collusion from Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, 10th Edition:

Collusion is a “secret agreement or cooperation especially for an illegal or deceitful purpose.”

Collaboration is allowed on the FAP and FSA End-of-Module exercises, Final Assessment and DMAC Assignment but the work submitted must be in your own words.  Submitting work that is not in your own words is considered improper collaboration and a form of cheating and is strictly prohibited on all e-Learning submissions.  The SOA uses the following definition of collaboration from Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary,10th Edition: 

 

 

Collaboration is defined as “to work jointly with others or together especially in an intellectual endeavor.”

Control of Work Product

Failing to secure your work product may result in your work being plagiarized by other candidates. You are required to maintain control of your work product by not giving copies of your work to others or placing your work on a network drive, a shared computer, a supervisor’s computer, etc. In cases where plagiarism has occurred in this manner the owner of the work product will be subject to disciplinary action in addition to the candidate(s) who unlawfully obtained the work product. Tips for securing your work product are listed below.

  • Password protect your work documents during development (remove password prior to submission)
  • Do not save your files to a public or network drive
  • Avoid printing out work files on a shared printer
  • Maintain control of and secure portable storage devices (flash drives, etc.)
  • Do not provide study partners or others with copies of your work

By registering for a course, you must adhere to these Terms and Conditions and agree to have all submissions checked for plagiarism, improper collaboration, collusion, and improper conduct at any time, even after a grade or designation is issued and by whatever mechanism the SOA deems appropriate.

With regard to material from published sources, the SOA will accept the use of ideas from legitimate published sources without citation if it is properly integrated into a response and not simply copied word-for-word. Language or information that is included in a submission that is essentially copied word-for-word from a legitimate published source must be in quotation marks and the source referenced within that paragraph. In addition, you should be aware that no end-of-module exercise or e-Learning assessment can be adequately answered using the “cut-and-paste” method.

 

Examples of Improper Conduct (These Examples Are Not An Exclusive List Of Prohibited Conduct):

  1. Gaining access to the SOA e-Learning system prior to course registration.
  2. Plagiarizing, improperly collaborating and/or colluding on the FAP or FSA End-of-Module Exercise(s) submissions, the FAP Interim Assessment, FAP Final Assessment or DMAC Assignment, copying, or using another person’s work, whether done online, in person, or otherwise.
  3. Use of language or information that has been copied from or relied upon from any SOA model solution (including earlier versions of the assignment), any other candidate submission or a solution prepared by another party.
  4. Copying from a source without proper citation.
  5. Gaining access to FAP or FSA End-of-Module Exercise model solutions prior to exercise submission.
  6. Failing to secure work documents (e.g., storing your files on a publicly accessible network).
  7. Discussing or consulting other persons regarding the FAP Interim Assessment, whether done online, in person, or otherwise.
  8. Gaining access to the e-Learning system using another candidate’s User ID and password.
  9. Providing your e-Learning system User ID and password to another candidate.
  10. Taking the course, FAP or FSA End-of-Module Exercises, FAP Interim Assessment, FAP Final Assessment or DMAC Assignment for another candidate or arranging for or permitting another person to take the course, End-of-Module Exercises, FAP Interim Assessment, FAP Final Assessment or DMAC Assignment for another candidate.
  11. Disclosing, publishing or posting the contents of any assessment or model solution.
  12. Presenting false information on the course or assessment applications.

  18. Engaging in any inappropriate conduct when participating in or using Learning Companion or Explorer.

Process to Report Rule Infractions and Improper Conduct

The SOA has instituted a process for you to report rule infractions and improper conduct of the e-Learning courses and assessments. If you believe that a candidate has violated the Exam Rules and Regulations or the Terms and Conditions for e-Learning Candidates Agreement, a written report may be submitted. The report and the name of the individual making the report will be kept confidential during the investigation process and assessment of discipline (if any). For complete information and a link to the infraction report, please click here.

The Education Committee of the SOA will investigate any irregularity or claim, or evidence that a candidate has cheated, engaged or attempted to engage in improper conduct, or failed to follow the Terms and Conditions either in letter or spirit. The SOA will not disclose to the person contacting us the results of that investigation.

 

Disclosing Violations To Other Actuarial Organizations

The SOA may, at its sole discretion, disclose to any other bona fide actuarial organization having a legitimate interest, the identity of any candidate determined to have committed a serious e-Learning course violation (those for which the penalty is greater than the simple discontinuation of the course or disqualification/nullification of any submission and information) about the penalties imposed on you.

Where an actuarial organization with which the SOA has a direct working relationship invokes a penalty against you for an examination or e-Learning course-related violation on an examination or e-Learning course for which the SOA is not a joint sponsor or administrator, the SOA will impose the same penalty on you with respect to e-Learning courses or writing any SOA examinations.

You will have the right to appeal the SOA’s application of the disciplinary decision of another actuarial organization. If you make such an appeal, the SOA will request, and you consent to, the transfer of your disciplinary case files including all evidence, from the other organization to the SOA for disposition of the appeal under the general provisions of the SOA disciplinary process.

If you appeal an SOA education or examination-related disciplinary penalty to another actuarial organization invoking the same penalty based on the reciprocal agreement, the SOA will provide, and you consent to providing, the relevant disciplinary case files upon receipt of written request from the organization, subject to the applicable SOA policies and procedures (and respecting the legitimate protection of the SOA attorney/client privileged communication).

You will be required to acknowledge that any appeal requires the exchange of the confidential information between the SOA and another organization and must provide written authorization for the release of the information to or by the other organization.

 

Effective Period

Access to the FAP course is effective 24 months from the date of purchase. If you are unable to complete your course within the specified time frame you may utilize up to two (2)_one year extensions, for a total access period of four years. Contact SOA Customer Service at 1-888-697-3900 for additional information. If you are unable to complete the course at the end of the extension periods, you must re-register by re-purchasing the course, and beginning again from Module 1, forfeiting all previously earned credit, including for the Interim Assessment.

All other course access is effective 12 months from the date of purchase. Up to two six-month extensions may be utilized, for a total access period of two years.
