Board Smart Offers Online Training Platform for Public Pension Trustees, Execs

Board Smart notes that the launch is timely, given the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic has severely curtailed in-person meetings, which until this point have been the primary way that trustees have learned how to do their jobs and received ongoing education.

The platform showcases 20-minute “Expert Talks” created by a faculty with in-depth knowledge of public pensions: former trustees, system executives, governance and investment experts, actuaries and attorneys. Each of these talks includes a downloadable transcript, system self-assessments, instant nationwide feedback and peer benchmarking, case examples, further resources and references, user forums, and a national public pension policy repository.
