Seminar Information

Available to Active Employees Only

In planning for your future, it is vital that you have the right information. That’s why we have prepared two pre-retirement planning seminars: one for our members early in their career and one for members who are near retirement.

  • Fine-Tuning Your Retirement Plans: Developed for active members within 5 years of retirement. This format emphasizes financial planning and estate planning strategies for your retirement years.
  • Planning For Your Future: Developed for active members in the early stages of their career. This format emphasizes savings and investment opportunities available to you to supplement your Fire & Police Pension Plan.

The seminars we’ve held to date have been very successful. Here are some quotes from members who attended the seminars in 2009:

“Thank you for this opportunity to educate us on our next and final phase in life." May 2009 ~ Tier 5 - Planning For Your Future

“Great seminar! Foolish not to attend and take advantage of this. Learn to adjust your living style to ensure that you will be secure in your retirement. A lot of info covered." June 2009 ~ Tier 5 - Fine-Tuning Your Retirement Plans

"Course outline did an excellent job of combining all aspects that affect retirement decisions." Craig Rensch, July 2009 ~ Tiers 3 & 4 - Fine-Tuning Your Retirement Plans

"Excellent seminar with excellent, pertinent information. Thank you! Definitely worth it!!!" October 2009 ~ Tiers 3 & 4 - Fine-Tuning Your Retirement Plans

 

Seminar attendance is by invitation only. Members are invited to seminars based on years of service and level of interest.
