The Massachusetts State Retirement Board’s SMART Retirement & Beyond Virtual Webinars are held exclusively for Massachusetts State Employees. They are sponsored by State Treasurer Deborah B. Goldberg, the Massachusetts State Retirement Board, and the Massachusetts Deferred Compensation SMART Plan.
These webinars are very beneficial if a member is beginning their career with the state or a year away from retirement. Eligible members learn about the features and latest updates on their pension benefit, the benefits of investing in the Massachusetts Deferred Compensation SMART Plan, and in some cases, an overview of social security benefits for which they may be eligible.
