Missed the Fall Benefit Information Meeting?
You can still watch the video online - it's not too late! TRS hosted statewide Benefit Information Meetings and webinars for active TRS members from September through early November that were designed to explain the TRS benefit structure, including retirement, disability and death benefits. The retirement process, the Supplemental Savings Plan, health insurance benefits and post-retirement employment were also discussed.
