Career

Hi,
Step 1- Clear the ACET Exam:
You must clear the Actuarial Common Entrance Test (ACET) to become a member of IAI (Institute of Actuaries of India). The IAI conducts the ACET exam bi-yearly, once in June and once in December.
Only after the student clears the ACET he/she is eligible to the Actuarial exams.
Step 2- Further clear 4 sets of examinations:
After passing the ACET, a student must then clear 15 subjects that are divided in 4 sets of examinations viz. CT (Core Technical), CA (Core Application), ST (Specialist Technical) and SA (Specialist Application).
Which are the best institutes / universities/ colleges?
You can opt for a diploma, graduation, or post-graduation course in actuarial science from some of the top institutes in India:
- Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (Mumbai)
- Birla Institute of Management Technology (New Delhi)
- Actuarial Institute of India (Mumbai)
- Bishop Heber College (Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu)
- Institute of Certified Risk and Insurance Managers (Hyderabad).
The course curriculum would vary with respect to the institutes.

If you think that you are a cabin crew material, you can apply for all the available vacancies with the airlines. If you get selected, they train you in any case. Airlines do not trust on the training acquired from institutions. The only help you get from the institution is that of the interview dates.
In the interview, no airline will ask you any questions about safety, first aid or services because they are airline specific, when it comes to service. But yes, if you are an experienced crew, be ready to answer a few technical ones. In your case they judge you on your personality, grooming, communication and BMI.
To talk about the training, Jet Airways provides one of the best training and that lasts for about 3 months.
Therefore, scrap the idea of joining a private institution to be trained on cabin crew attributes and don't waste your money.
