About The ERISA Workshop

Keeping up-to-date with the changing rules and regulations applicable to pension and employee benefit plans has never been more challenging.  To that end, we offer an annual ERISA workshop for financial consultants, held in Dallas and Chicago, focusing on the distinctive needs of financial advisers.
