Pre-Retirement Courses and Workshops
As an employer, ensuring that your longest-serving employees can enjoy the full benefits of a successful retirement is an important responsibility. At True Bearing, we offer comprehensive pre-retirement courses and workshops to make sure your employees receive all the support they need as they approach retirement.
Our interactive retirement seminars are designed for companies whose employees are approaching the final two years of their working lives. These courses deliver a wealth of information designed to benefit and educate employers and employees alike, covering all of the major topics and questions involved in helping employees prepare for retirement. We will tailor the content of our sessions to fit the culture and expectations of your business.
By attending one of our sessions, you and your workers will be able to benefit from the industry-leading expertise of True Bearing, a Chartered Independent Financial Advisory firm ranking among the top 15% by qualifications in the UK. We combine gold-standard knowledge with a local North West connection and a strong personal touch, meaning we are ideally placed to help you and your older workers process through the transition to retirement.

How Our Pre-Retirement Courses Work
At True Bearing, we understand that good retirement planning is the key to helping long-serving workers fulfil their post-work dreams, and that employers can play a valuable role in helping them to prepare for this transition.
All of our pre-retirement workshops are designed to help achieve this, and are provided at our expense, with no direct cost to your business. In order to take advantage of this service, you will need to demonstrate that a certain number of your employees are within two years of retirement; if your organisation meets this criteria, please get in touch.
A typical course aims to provide guidance on key subjects such as:
- How should you emotionally prepare for the transition to retirement?
- How will the retirement process work, and what are the options?
- What pension benefits are available, and how can these be optimised?
- When approaching retirement, how can you effectively manage your finances to support a comfortable lifestyle?
- What is estate planning, and how can it be used to protect your assets?
- How can you maintain a physical and mental healthy lifestyle in retirement?
- What new opportunities will be available to you? How can you use this newfound freedom to expand your social horizons?
Each interactive one-day course includes contributions from various expert speakers. The topics are comprehensive and broad enough to answer any queries that employees may have.
We run more than 100 face-to-face full-day courses each year, meaning that around 1,500 attendees benefit from our tailored retirement planning advice annually. We work with a wide variety of private and public sector employers - our clients include:
- Universities
- Teaching bodies
- Local authorities
- Police forces
- Major chemical companies
- Tyre manufacturers
- Engine makers
- Car manufacturers
- Fire services
- NHS institutions
- National associations
- Unions
Feedback is taken from both employers and employees at every course, aiding our efforts to ensure that our sessions deliver the comprehensive, personalised and accessible support that employees are looking for to start their retirement journey.
Webinars
If a virtual session would be more convenient for you and your workforce, True Bearing’s team is more than happy to accommodate. We have been successful in hosting webinars and remote sessions for a number of national organisations, delivered via the Microsoft Teams platform and tailored to offer a shorter, more direct alternative to our face-to-face sessions.
Session topics will include pensions, finance and legal matters as standard, while optional additional sessions can also be included to suit your requirements. For more details on how these webinars can be arranged, get in touch with True Bearing today.
