RE: Mandatory Retirement Board Member Training – 2nd Quarter 2018
DATE: April 5, 2018
As you know, Chapter 32 mandates that retirement board members complete training during each year of service on the retirement board. Failure to meet this mandatory requirement will prohibit the member from serving beyond the conclusion of the term for which the training requirement was not met.
Retirement board members are reminded of the requirement to meet the statutory education mandate. As we enter the seventh year of this program it must be noted that, unfortunately, several retirement board members have become ineligible for service on retirement boards due to failure to fulfill the education mandate.
Upcoming events and locations include:
