The road to retirement, while filled with excitement, can sometimes be unexpectedly bumpy. “Transitioning to Retirement,” with separate sessions for UC Davis Health faculty/physicians/academics and staff, will provide valuable information and tools for developing a successful strategy for retirement. Topics will include UC pension options, retiree health benefits, Social Security, financial planning for retirement and work/life transitions. It is recommended that participants register for the entire 4-week series, however each session is available for individual registration.
Workshop leaders will include UC Davis staff and faculty and representatives from retirement-focused organizations. “Transitioning to Retirement” is a joint project of the UC Davis Retiree Center and the Office of the Vice Provost-Academic Personnel with support from Staff Development and Professional Services.
Session 4: Work and Lifestyle Transitions
Retirement is a time of great expectations but also a time of significant change. As you ready for this next phase of life you might find it to be a challenging transition, even if you have planned for it and are looking forward to it. In the first part of this session, you will learn strategies for successfully navigating the change and thriving emotionally, socially, and intellectually.
The second part of this session
- for staff will feature a panel of retirees who will share their insights on negotiating the transition to retirement and making the most of your retirement years.
- for Academics will feature Academic Affairs Vice Provost Phil Kass, who will discuss specific ways in which academics can stay engaged at UC Davis post-retirement. He’ll describe the recall process for teaching, research, and service, and other opportunities for retired Senate and non-Senate academics to continue their involvement with UC Davis.
