This manual offers practical guidelines for those who wish to become involved in providing pre-retirement education for older workers.

Chapter 1 provides an overview of pre-retirement education issues and content. Chapter 2 deals with the educational methods and program structure of a retirement planning workshop. Chapter 3 provides a step-by-step procedural guide for each of the topics covered in the retirement planning workshop or seminar. Finally, chapter 4 elaborates on the program planning aspects of the pre-retirement event.
