Prime Time

This 2-day seminar offers an introduction to the benefit package as it exists today. Many employees know what the benefit package was when they were hired or when someone they know retired but changes may have been made. Each change may not be major but the cumulative effect can be. Mid-Career employees are those who are committed to their Federal government career but not yet within 5 years of retirement. Additionally, approximately 4 hours are spent on basic financial planning and investment concepts plus how to choose a financial planner if needed.
