Winter-Spring 2017 Schedule of PREP Seminars

No matter how far along you are in your career, careful financial and retirement planning are critical. NYSTRS’ Pension & Retirement Education Program (PREP) is designed to help members of all ages accomplish that.

Members can tailor PREP to fit their needs by staying for the entire seminar ( 8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. ) or just those modules that help them the most: NYSTRS benefits; financial planning; Social Security; estate planning; retirement—a new beginning; filing for retirement; and, retirement income.

PREP seminars are free, and sessions are held throughout the year across the state. Our winter-spring 2017 PREP schedule is now available on the Retirement Planning > Pension & Retirement Education Program page of our website at NYSTRS.org. Instructions for making reservations, which will be accepted in the order they are received, are included on the schedule.

Members interested in attending a benefits consultation can also do so year-round. At these one-on-one meetings, staff review the retirement process, explain payment options and provide members with benefit estimates for their target retirement dates. Our 2016-2017 consultation schedule is now available on the Retirement Planning > Benefits Consultations page of our website.
