Pension trustee training

Keeping knowledge and understanding up to date is a must for 21st century trustees to meet The Pensions Regulator's requirements.

Effective, targeted training to improve pension trustee knowledge and understanding (TKU) is vital. We regularly run courses covering real life examples and topical pension issues as well as The Pensions Regulator’s (TPR) scope guidance.

Our courses include:

• trustee knowledge & understanding for new pension trustees
• core knowledge refresher sessions for more experienced pension trustees
• training for the 21st century trustee - covering governance, strategic thinking & risk management and effective board dynamics
• bespoke training for individual trustee boards - for example, ahead of an investment strategy review or pension scheme valuation or to implement TPR's new single code of practice

All of our training courses for pension trustees are interactive, with plenty of practical examples and opportunities for discussion and questions.

Trustee training tools

Our trustee training needs analysis highlights where knowledge gaps exist and additional training is required. Our pension trustee effectiveness self-assessment questionnaire helps you assess the structure and function of your trustee board, how well your trustee meetings work and the strength of your pension scheme governance arrangements.

From these we can build a specific trustee training plan or conduct a more in-depth trustee board effectiveness review to more fully meet TPR's 21st century trusteeship requirements.
