MEA Financial Services offers multiple trainings each year. They recommend you attend your first one when you have 5 years remaining, then another at 3 years out, and a final one your last year of teaching. Watch for these trainings: information will be shared via email and AEA newsletters.
You can also contact our Uniserv office if you have special circumstances (disability, years of service in another state, family situation that require early retirement, etc.) email: lrobbins@mea.org.
