Ready to Retire prepares NC State employees for the retirement process, speakers typically include individuals from the Social Security Administration, North Carolina State Health Plan, NC State University Benefits Department, TIAA, Fidelity, and Prudential.
All employees are welcome to attend Ready to Retire, but employees who are thinking about retiring within the next 5-7 years are strongly encouraged to attend.
Ready to Retire Workshop Series | February 23 – March 1, 2023
Beginning February 23 through March 1, University Human Resources will be hosting Ready to Retire virtually in a series of stand-alone sessions. Each session will focus on a specific topic typically covered during the traditional Ready to Retire half-day workshop. This change in format is to offer a more focused approach to employees who prefer to learn in smaller segments of time.
Sessions on the below topics will be offered during this series, employees should register for each segment of the series they wish to attend. Sessions are limited to the first 500 registrants. Sessions will be recorded and posted to this page, in the previously recorded sessions section, with the exception of the Social Security and Retirement Benefits session.

- In this session, a speaker from the Social Security Administration will review eligibility for Social Security benefits, how retirement impacts your SSA benefits, qualifications for spousal/survivorship benefits, how to get the most from your social security benefit, and more.
The Ready to Retire half-day workshop will be offered on August 29, 2023, from 1- 5 pm in Talley Student Union for those who prefer our traditional format. Registration details regarding the August workshop will be shared later this semester.
