Completed from United Kingdom
I signed up for the IFRS 17 (ifrs 17) course at Stanmore because I wanted to brush up on the new insurance reporting rules. The course was laid out in a very easy‑going style – the videos were short and the examples were drawn from real UK insurers, which helped me see how the theory works in practice. I learned how to calculate the risk adjustment and how to set up the contractual service margin in a simple spreadsheet. The supplementary PDFs were clear and the quizzes reinforced the key points. It wasn’t perfect – I wish there were more live Q&A sessions – but overall I’m happy with what I got and feel ready to tackle IFRS‑17 at work.
The IFRS 17 course at Stanmore School of Business was exactly what I needed to meet my professional certification goals. The modules on contract boundaries and discount rate selection gave me a clear framework that I was able to apply immediately at my insurance firm.

The reading materials were up‑to‑date and referenced the latest EIOPA guidance, which made the content feel highly relevant. Overall, the learning experience was smooth, the instructors were responsive, and I left the course confident I can draft IFRS‑17 compliant financial statements for my team.
Wow! The IFRS 17 (ifrs 17) program at Stanmore School of Business exceeded my expectations. I was looking for a course that could turn the dense standard into actionable skills, and it delivered. The instructor’s enthusiastic explanations of the measurement models (general measurement model, premium allocation approach, and variable fee approach) made complex concepts click. I was especially thrilled to complete the case study where we re‑valuated a life‑insurance portfolio using the new discount rate methodology – I can now show my manager a concrete example of cost savings. The course materials were top‑notch, with up‑to‑date examples from both Asian and global markets. I finished the course feeling fully equipped to lead our team’s IFRS‑17 transition.
The IFRS 17 (ifrs 17) course offered by Stanmore School of Business provided a thorough and detailed exploration of the new reporting standard. The curriculum covered everything from the definition of an insurance contract to the intricacies of the contractual service margin. I found the detailed walkthrough of the actuarial valuation process especially useful; the step‑by‑step guide allowed me to build a prototype model that I later presented to my senior analysts. The supporting documents were well‑structured, with clear diagrams and real‑world examples from South African insurers, which added relevance. While the pace was a bit intense at times, the overall learning experience was solid and gave me the confidence to implement IFRS‑17 practices in my organization.
