Employer Training
Each month, the Retirement Systems offers comprehensive two-day employer training sessions in its Columbia office for benefits administrators, payroll personnel, human resource officials, and others involved in the administration of public employee benefits. Retirement Systems' staff conduct this training in small, informal sessions which encourages group participation and welcomes questions or comments. The curriculum focuses on beginner-based training but also covers new procedures and updates mandated by legislation and policy changes. The following topics are included:

These classes are extremely popular and usually are filled months in advance. These presentations are ideal for new employees who will be working in these particular areas and provide a solid overall training for managers. Often, there are repeat attendees who desire refresher training.

In certain cases, the Retirement Systems offers limited on-site employer training, such as New Employer Orientation presentations.
