Now, we want to make sure what you learned can translate into actionable ideas and enhancements. As a prudent plan sponsor it is important to:

  • Document: As a way to document your training, we will send you a Certificate of Attendance. Save and file as a record of the training you just received.

  • Periodically Evaluate: Finally, in order to facilitate impact and enhancement, we’ve created the Complimentary Plan Evaluation. We know juggling the responsibilities of a plan sponsor isn’t the only part of your job, but you are in the position to have a major impact on the retirement of your employees.

The plan assessment is designed to maximize time and help you meet the annual fiduciary requirement of reviewing your plan. This straightforward, one-hour at your office time investment is complimentary with your registration and tackles fiduciary best practices, plan design, benefits, investments, and fees with the host of our workshop – no strings attached.
