Retirement Seminar Schedule

Retirement Seminars for 2023-2024 have been completed.  The schedule for 2024-2025 will be posted in early September 2024.

NOTE: 

1. Teachers do not register with the NSTU for the Retirement Seminars.  Employers are required to submit names by September 22, 2023 at the latest.  Members should contact their principal/supervisor on how and when they can submit their names to attend a Retirement Seminar this school year.
2. Teachers must register through their employer (Regional Centre for Education, CSAP, or APSEA) and receive approval from their employer to attend a Retirement Seminar. The employer is responsible for advising teachers of their approval to attend a Retirement Seminar, which Retirement Seminar they have been approved to attend, and the appropriate absence code to use.

Retirement Seminar Handouts

The NSTU provides a number of retirement seminars each school year for members who are within 5 years of retirement.  The handouts related to the NSTU presentations are updated at least annually.
