Planning for your future is important, but sometimes it’s hard to
know where or when to start. We offer webinars to help you plan
for retirement during your early, mid, and/or late career. If you
want to know more about your ACERA retirement and how it
works, attend a webinar.
However, if you are already familiar with the retirement system,
and are ready to submit retirement paperwork, visit our Applying to Retire page.
