Is it Time to Focus on Your Professional Development Goals?
Whether you are new in the industry, an experienced veteran, or fall somewhere in between, it can be challenging to stay on top of the rules that directly affect retirement, health, and education savings plans.
There has been a significant amount of new IRS guidance in recent years. Most notably, the SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 has brought sweeping changes that will reverberate throughout the retirement industry for years to come. In addition to this new legislation, you’re also tasked with keeping a firm grasp on existing rules so your department can maintain a compliant program.
But how are you doing? Are you feeling stuck in your current position, or do you want to take your career and industry knowledge to the next level?
Let Ascensus help you with your career goals. We offer training to meet your needs, whether that means in-person training, self-paced online courses, or virtual training, which is a hybrid learning model that allows participants to remain in their own environment but still engage and learn in live instructor-led online sessions. Whatever learning method works best for you, Ascensus has options for you.
