Plan for Retirement at a Summer PREP Seminar

07/08/2024

Members often tell us they wish they started planning for retirement much earlier. Don’t let that happen to you! This summer, to help active members take a proactive approach to retirement planning, NYSTRS presents the Pension & Retirement Education Program (PREP).

The half-day PREP seminar, which is free and held throughout the state, covers a range of topics: NYSTRS benefits, financial planning, Social Security, estate planning and the retirement process. Designed to educate members of all ages and career stages, the seminar helps members understand their NYSTRS benefits and how their future pension can work as the foundation of their overall retirement picture.

The summer 2024 PREP schedule, with instructions for making reservations, is available on the Retirement Planning/Pension & Retirement Education Program page. Spots fill up quickly so register now! Help us spread the word; please share this information with NYSTRS members at your district as soon as possible.

PREP seminars are not intended for individual benefits counseling. Members interested in a benefit consultation should visit the Retirement Planning/Benefits Consultations page to learn how to schedule a personal consultation.

Thank you for your assistance in spreading the word about this important NYSTRS program!
