Retirement Planning Centre
 

The Retirement Planning Centre is one-of-a-kind in Canadian universities.

We provide support, education and counseling for all York employees and retirees, enabling them to make informed choices when planning for life after retirement. We are committed to offering our services with integrity, objectivity, and empathy. The RPCentre envisions retirement as an opportunity to continue an active and useful life- a stimulating and fulfilling continuation of lifelong education.

The Retirement Planning Centre offers three main areas of service: Retirement Planning Seminars, Individual Private Consultation, Resource Collection & Referral Service.


Retirement Planning Seminars

Lunch Hour Seminars
A variety of seminars offered free to all staff, faculty and retirees, usually during the lunch-hour, provides valuable information about retirement planning. Seminars reflect our philosophy that retirement planning involves all areas of our lives: financial, personal and health

 

E-Seminars
Now you can see selected seminars on the web. You can watch the seminars complete with power-point presentation slides at your convenience whenever you want. Double-click on the e-seminars link below or go into the seminars category on the side bar.

Individual Private Consultation

Meet with Catherine Federico, Co-ordinator, for a one-to-one meeting about your own retirement plans. Ask specific questions or talk generally about where to start your retirement planning


Retirement Planning Resources

Check out this site for a variety of retirement planning tools. Start your retirement planning by reading the new “Retirement Planning Guide”. It contains the basics of lifestyle, personal finances, government programs and York retirement specifics. Written in an easy to understand manner this program will take some of the mystery out of retirement planning. Request a Retirement Mentor from a pool of retired York faculty and staff to guide you through the retirement process or share their experience of a specific situation. And there’s more …a small lending library of retirement related material, links to offices and services for information about financial planners, post-retirement benefits, and retirement articles.
