Retirement planning - regional event at Seneca College on Saturday January 28, 2017

  • How much money do I need to retire?
  • How much pension will I get?
  • Is my pension secure?
  • How do I prepare for retirement?

If these questions have ever crossed your mind, you should attend the upcoming retirement planning session.

The Saturday afternoon retirement planning event will be led by Derek Dobson, pension expert and CEO of the CAAT Pension Plan. He’ll answer the questions members ask about retiring. During Derek’s presentation, you’ll learn about the Plan’s benefits, including flexible retirement date options, valuable survivor benefits, and inflation protection. The session uses real-world examples and retirement planning tips to help ensure a smooth transition to retirement.

Representatives from the CAAT Pension Plan will be available to answer your questions after the presentation.

The session is free of charge, and open to CAAT Pension Plan members from any GTA college (and their guests).

Not thinking about retirement yet?
This session will benefit members of any age, and we strongly encourage all members over 50 to attend.

How helpful is the session?
