NEPC conducts educational programs for all of its clients. These sessions are customized for each client and have run from one half day in length to three days in length, depending on their frequency and the topics covered. We have presented educational pieces to large groups as well as individuals, and sessions have covered everything from the basics of investing, to trustee responsibilities, to the details on various alternative assets. Education and training materials are typically through client presentations, which are concise but thorough. We also provide white papers to our clients on various topics.
We are proactive in bringing the resources of the entire firm to our clients. In addition to supporting each client with a team of consultants and supporting specialists, NEPC sponsors a bi-annual client conference in odd years, and offers clients a set of multi-city two day regional workshops in even years. Additionally, we conduct frequent educational seminars to keep our clients up to date on the latest investment research, products, and results. This enables us to share our perspectives and research on industry issues, legislative changes, and investment strategies that can affect an investment program. Our client conference offers an open forum with which to share thoughts and opinions with peers and industry experts.
Education is of paramount importance, as good feedback and the provision of investment fundamentals to both trustees and employees will assist each group in its efforts to enhance returns and reduce risk.
