Calling Union Pension Trustees and Pension Advisory Committee members! CUPE will be offering its Pension Trustee training in Ottawa, January 15-17, 2019
During this three-day workshop, you will learn about:
- Your role as a union trustee or advisory committee member;
- Fiduciary duty and options for maintaining plan funding;
- Working with actuaries, legal counsel, investment managers;
- Responding to pressure to invest pension funds in privatization including P3s;
- How we can defend against attacks on pensions.
Union pension experts will deliver the training using a participatory, hands-on approach. Participants will build pension skills, meet other pension activists, share knowledge, tips, and strategies.
