As a plan fiduciary, your personal assets—including your house, bank accounts, and cars—are at risk if you fail to meet your fiduciary duties. With so much at risk, employers and plan fiduciaries must learn how to comply with ERISA's strict fiduciary duties.
The training program explains in easy-to-understand terms what it means to be a plan fiduciary. The program provides practical tips and an effective, ten-step approach to help fiduciaries avoid personal liability, protect plan participants, and facilitate a plan structure that protects responsible fiduciaries.
To help you better understand the difficult dilemmas facing plan fiduciaries, the Program also provides real-life examples of common fiduciary issues, including in-depth explanations discussing how best to deal with these difficult issues.

| About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts: |
Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.
The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form a training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!
And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.
Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions. |
