Land O Lakes Chapter

The IASA Land O’ Lakes Chapter was founded in 1964 and is comprised of members from Minnesota and North Dakota. The purpose of our chapter is to provide members with opportunities to engage in professional networking, industry education, earn Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits, and informational updates regarding the insurance industry, critical to the areas in which they live. Our chapter offers these opportunities through a half day technical update in the Spring, a half day Ethics Seminar in the summer and a full day technical update in the fall, which provides opportunity to network and earn CPE credits. Topics may include economic outlooks, investment and actuarial roundtable discussions, cybersecurity, ethics, soft skills, and GAAP and Statutory updates. We welcome you to join our chapter!
