Employer Education Week
Educational. Interactive. Just for you.
The OMERS Education & Training team was delighted to host our first ever Employer Education Week. The virtual conference took place the week of October 26th, 2020 and featured something for everyone!
Over the course of this free week-long event, employer administrators tuned in to learn more about administering the OMERS plan, along with hearing from Celine Chiovitti, Senior Vice President, Pension & Corporate Services, OMERS; James Scongack, Bruce Power’s Executive Vice-President, Corporate Affairs & Operational Services (an OMERS investment entity), and a wellness discussion with OMERS very own Chief Medical Officer, Dr. James Aw. There was also the opportunity to connect with fellow OMERS administrators from across the province through live coffee chats and attend an employer panel discussion where peers shared their best practices and lessons learned along the way.
Thank you to everyone who joined us! It was great to connect with you virtually.
Please see below for a copy of the schedule and recordings for some of the presentations.
