Workshops are held throughout the year and are designed to increase awareness of employers' responsibilities in relation to pension legislation. The workshops are designed to provide a basic understanding of an employer's administrative responsibilities and would be of interest to anyone administering the Plan and submitting data to PSPP's administrator, Alberta Pensions Services Corporation (APS). The workshops run from 9:00 a.m. to noon, and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

On the day of the workshop, please limit the use of perfumes, scented hair spray and other highly scented products out of respect for attendees with severe allergies.
