I am starting to think about what FSA track I want to pursue. I work for a health insurance company. The obvious FSA track is the Group Health track. However, I find the ERM/CFE track interesting (http://ift.tt/1ya4FPa).
Does anyone have any experience with Health actuaries going down this track? From people I've talked to, I get the impression that this track would be a lot harder than the health track, but it may put me into a position to lead the company's ERM 10 years down the road. I've also been told that after you get your FSA, no one really cares what you got it in, so maybe it's not worth the extra effort. Thoughts?
My current strategy is to take the ERM Module first, to see if I really do like it. If I do like it, then I can take the ERM exam before having to commit to a track.
