We are pleased to announce our upcoming Open Enrollment Roundtable, a structured and interactive event designed to provide attendees with direct access to subject matter experts across multiple areas of benefits.
This unique format will feature five distinguished benefit specialists each focusing on a specific area of expertise: (SAM) Core Benefits, (SHANNON) Supplemental Benefits, (CORY)Retirement Savings, (KEN) Health Saving Accounts and (STEW)Health Care. Each specialist will be stationed at their own table, allowing for in-depth discussions and personalized guidance.
Attendees will be assigned to small groups and rotate through each table in timed 20-minute sessions. During each session, participants will have the opportunity to:
- Gain a deeper understanding of the specialist’s area of focus.
- Ask targeted questions related to open enrollment.
- Learn how to maximize the benefits available to them.
By the conclusion of the event, attendees will leave with a well-rounded understanding of their benefits options, increased confidence in making informed decisions, and actionable steps to ensure they are fully prepared for open enrollment.
This event is designed to equip you with the knowledge and clarity needed to make the most of your benefits package—both now and in the future along with understanding the steps and decision making employers take during open enrollment.
This program has been approved for 1.5 HRCI and SHRM credits.
