What is the organizational structure of OPR?
The Director of the Office of Professional Responsibility is one of the offices that report to the Deputy Commissioner for Services and Enforcement and works in close coordination with the enforcement functions. Our office is made up of two functions. The Licensure and Education unit administers the Special Enrollment Examination for those who wish to become enrolled agents, processes applications for enrollment, and monitors enrolled agent continuing professional education. The two Enforcement units handle all disciplinary matters and potential denials of applications for enrollment. The Executive Director of the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries supports the work of the Joint Board in regulating practice of actuaries before the Departments of Treasury and Labor. Enrolled actuaries certify the reliability of pension plan funding projections.
