By William Whitman, Director of Membership & Strategic Alliances, NCPERSThe start of October provides a perfect moment to spotlight what NCPERS has in the works for the remainder of this year, while also starting to look ahead to 2025. See below for several important reminders as we approach the end of 2024.
We are gearing up for our Public Safety Conference in Palm Springs, CA at the end of the month! A terrific agenda has been assembled for our public safety pension leaders, filled with expert speakers to build your knowledge and social events to build your network. Public safety-focused organizations should be making plans to attend this year's event; please see our registration page for additional details.
For the 14th consecutive year, we are conducting our Annual Public Retirement Systems Study to gather information on fiscal, operational, and business practices at public pensions across the country. The email sent to your pension plan staff on September 19 from research@ncpers.org contains instructions on how to complete your survey. By participating, your organization will receive the NCPERS Certificate of Excellence for Public Pension Reporting and Transparency, along with access to the aggregated data to help benchmark your own fiscal, operational, and business practices. We are requesting submissions by Friday, October 18.
Looking ahead to 2025, a reminder that the new year of NCPERS membership will start on January 1st. Renewal notices have been sent to our billing contacts at each member organization. Please make sure your organization's renewal is underway and reach out to membership@ncpers.org with any questions about the process. You'll want to renew before the end of December, so that when January 2025 arrives, your organization will continue to access our premier educational conferences, innovative research, and network of pension leaders.
We will be kicking off a full slate of programming for 2025 with our Pension Communications Summit and Legislative Conference & Policy Day at the end of January. Professionals working in pension communications should make plans to attend our Summit to connect with their peers and learn about solutions for common challenges they face. Then our Legislative Conference will prepare plan leaders and government liaisons for 2025's new environment of state and federal activity.
Please begin to think ahead about which NCPERS events are most relevant for you and where you will be engaged with our programming in 2025! It is the engagement of our members that enables NCPERS to promote state and local public pensions and to provide education that keeps you on top of important trends in our industry.
