--- The
Retirement Advisor University (TRAU), a collaboration with UCLA Anderson School
of Management Executive Education, has formed The Plan Sponsor University
(TPSU). ---
The mission of The Plan Sponsor University is to educate and
train employers to better manage their corporate retirement plans on behalf
of their participants, help improve outcomes and introduce plan sponsors to
plan advisers who can help them accomplish these goals.
TPSU offers employers responsible for company retirement
plan oversight the opportunity to increase their knowledge and expertise in
areas such as retirement plan design and operation, management of their
fiduciary obligations, and improving outcomes for participants. Upon completion
of the program, the enrollee receives certification as a C(k)PS - Certified
401(k) Plan Specialist.
TPSU courses and curriculum will be offered regionally
around the country, and will be conducted by local plan advisers beginning in
spring of 2013.
