Financial Literacy Workshop

11/17/2020 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Each year at around this time, CAS sponsors a Financial Literacy Program for our members contemplating retirement. Because of the current COVID-19 pandemic, some members are actively thinking about retirement and planning for life post retirement. This year we will offer socially distanced in-person conferences for up to 12 members according to New York State and CDC guidelines.  Masks and hand sanitizer will be provided for all participants.

It is never too early to start thinking about retirement and actively planning for it. Whether you are thinking of retiring sooner or later down the road, we have developed another essential workshop for our members as a part of our continuing CAS Financial Literacy Program that you may find extremely helpful. On behalf of CAS, I would like to extend you an invitation to attend a workshop designed to inform, educate, and enhance your financial literacy as you prepare for the next phase of your life.
