The service is available throughout the year, and education programs can be taken individually or in groups. While the team does offer in-person seminars, web-based training allows for a more flexible learning option that can provide more personalized answers.
With CNBC reporting that 56% of Americans feel unprepared for retirement, PSRE aims to provide the tools and knowledge you need to confidently transition into your retirement years.
The unique retirement systems of federal and postal workers can make retirement planning more complex. As such, PSRE's online learning approach includes on-demand webinars and pre-recorded training modules accessible 24/7 through its e-learning portal. Interactive webinars will be available in half-day, full-day, and two-day sessions following PSRE's proven in-person workshop curriculum.
The online courses cover topics critical to federal retirees such as determining the optimal time to retire, developing a retirement transition plan, and understanding Federal Employees Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) options and rules. Courses walk you through managing Thrift Savings Plan funds and whether borrowing from the TSP early is prudent.
Additional modules focus on Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) - which allows you to share around 75% of the cost of healthcare with the government.
