You are welcome to reach out to the University Liaisons for their support or guidance in sharing information with particular schools. You can access the list of schools participating in the University Liaison Program on the CAS website.

Academic Central Program: The CAS offers a free membership program for professors teaching actuarial science or related courses. There are more than 350 academics participating as members of Academic Central.
