J3OP-US1331 Blended Retirement System (BRS) Financial Counselor-Educator Course (1 hr)

The purpose of this course is to prepare Financial Counselors/Educators (FC/Es) and other financial professionals to be able to accurately explain the Blended Retirement System and the differences with the "High-3" military retirement system, and to provide individual Service members accurate information to enable them to make informed decisions about their retirement options. The course is designed to provide FC/Es with the information they need to provide information and education to Service members and to enable them to integrate that information into the financial planning processes and procedures employed by their respective Service organizations. This is the second in a series of instructional courses being developed to inform the Uniformed Services about the new Blended Retirement System.
