The 2023 CAS Spring Meeting Livestream is separate. Registration is now open for the Livestream event.

The 2023 CAS Spring Meeting In-Person registration is now open.

The 2023 CAS Spring Meeting in-person registration fee includes educational sessions, three continental breakfasts, a luncheon on Monday, refreshment breaks, a welcome reception on Sunday and the Tuesday Buffet Dinner. Please note the special one-day registration for Active Candidates* on Monday, May 8. The fee is $250 and includes educational sessions, as well as Monday’s breakfast, luncheon, and refreshment breaks.

Early Registration

You are encouraged to register early for the 2023 CAS Spring Meeting. Please note that while there is limited space at this year’s Annual Meeting, CAS will work to accommodate as many meeting registrants as is safe to do so. The CAS reserves the right to limit the number of participants.

Note Regarding Fees: All attendee registration fees will increase by $200 if the registration is received after April 14, 2023. Similarly, accompanying person (spouse/guest) registration fees will increase by $100 if the registration is received after April 14, 2023. The CAS will send confirmations via email to all registrants prior to the meeting.

In lieu of the complete accompanying person (spouse/guest) registration package, attendees may purchase individual tickets to the social events for their guests. Individual tickets are available for the continental breakfasts, Sunday Welcome Reception and the Tuesday Buffet Dinner.

All individual tickets sold below are already included in both the attendee and the accompanying person (spouse/guest) package registration fee. These tickets are only intended for use by attendees wishing to bring a guest to individual social functions and NOT all the social functions. If your guest will attend all social functions, the package price of $420 (after April 14) is discounted vs the price of purchasing each individual ticket.

Sunday Welcome Reception

• Ages 3-20: $48         

Tuesday Night Dinner

• Age 21+: $205
• Ages 3-20: $100

Continental Breakfast

Registration fees will be refunded for cancellations received by the CAS Office on or before April 28, 2023, less a $100 processing fee. Only written cancellations will be honored. Please send cancellation requests email to refund@casact.org.

If the CAS Spring Meeting is canceled, participants receive a full refund for registration fees paid. Transportation and hotel costs or fees are the responsibility of attendee and are therefore not reimbursable by the CAS.

Registration and attendance at or participation in CAS meetings, seminars and other activities constitutes an agreement by the registrant to the CAS’s use and distribution (both now and in the future) of the registrant or attendee’s image or voice in photographs, videotapes, electronic reproduction and audiotapes of such events and activities.

How does the CAS select in-person conference locations?

The decision on where to host CAS conferences considers a variety of factors. We strive to hold our four largest events (RPM, Spring, CLRS and Annual) in the Southeast, Northeast, Midwest, and West regions of the United States. Our goal is to enable those members who may only attend one event in a calendar year to have one of our four major events held in their region. For members who annually attend the same large CAS event, that event will be located in their region every four years.  We also aim to host one of our conferences in Canada every four to six years.

We remain focused on locations that are both convenient for travel from the majority of North America and that are appealing to potential attendees. 

What options exist for those who are not able or do not feel safe attending an in-person conference in a certain location?

All of our large events include a livestream virtual option so attendees can participate in high-quality and interactive continuing education opportunities and networking from anywhere in the world.

What do you do to ensure members feel welcomed, included, and safe during in-person conferences?

The CAS represents members and candidates of all races, ethnicities, religions, genders, sexual orientations, and socioeconomic classes, and creating a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for them is our foremost concern when planning in-person events. The CAS requires anyone in our conference spaces to be a registered attendee of the event, and we post signage and staff to keep others from accessing our area. We also ask attendees to abide by the Code of Conduct for CAS Events (see above).

The CAS prioritizes conference vendors that are committed to providing a safe and inclusive environment for all of our attendees.

Volunteer Activities on Tuesday, May 9th at 12:30 p.m. ET: Advanced Sign Ups Required

Looking to have fun while meeting new people during Tuesday’s “Lunch On Your Own?” We have two  opportunities to consider.

Volunteer As a Mentor for the CAS Student Program

The CAS is pleased to offer a free student conference in conjunction with the CAS Spring Meeting on May 9. We are inviting CAS members who would be willing to serve as mentors to participate in the program for lunch and speed networking from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m.

CAS meetings and seminars are important opportunities to plant the seeds for the future of the CAS by connecting with university students in a meaningful way. We have collected feedback from students who have participated in previous events, and by far, their favorite aspect has been their interaction with CAS mentors!

Please contact CAS Candidate Engagement Manager, Stephanie Litrenta at Slitrenta@casact.org if you are interested in networking with university students at the CAS Spring Meeting on May 9.

Volunteer to Assemble Special Packages for Local Elementary and Middle School Students

We’re seeking up to 30 volunteers to assemble packages containing calculators, pencils, and other fun giveaways, along with information about the actuarial career to be distributed later in the week to local elementary and middle school students. Lunch will be provided! Sign up to participate.

Can’t volunteer but want to give back?

Give Your Old Calculators a Second Life – Bring them to the CAS Spring Meeting Calculator Drive!
