  • The CAAT Plan will be delivering a series of information sessions about your pension at the end of April, via webinar. Last October, a representative from the CAAT Pension Plan visited Confederation College to deliver three presentations to members. The sessions were popular!​ 93% of survey respondents reporting that they would be very likely to recommend them to their friends and colleagues, and 86% said that the sessions improved their opinion of the value of their pension. Sign up for the April sessions today to see why the more members know about their pension, the more they value it!
