Upcoming Road to Retirement conference offers financial wellness, retirement resources for every stage of employee journey

Retirement may look different for every employee but understanding available options can help make the path forward clearer. Purdue’s virtual Road to Retirement conference, which takes place next week, will provide three days of information and resources employees can use to make informed financial and retirement planning decisions.

Held Sept. 23-25, the conference includes sessions for employees across career stages, whether retirement is years away, approaching quickly or already beginning to take shape.

More than 1,000 Purdue employees participated in the spring 2026 conference. This fall, experts from Purdue Human Resources, Fidelity, Social Security Administration and others return to cover topics including saving and investing, Social Security, healthcare, retirement income planning, and more. Employees can choose the sessions most relevant to their individual circumstances and retirement goals.

Providing access to information, expertise and resources that support financial wellness is one way Purdue helps employees prepare for what comes next – on this path together.

All benefits-eligible Purdue, Purdue Global, Purdue for Life and Purdue Research Foundation employees and their retirement planning partners are invited to participate.
