You asked, we listened!

We invite those who are responsible for reporting defined contribution plan information to MERS to join us for a free reporting bootcamp where our staff will provide an in-depth overview on:

  • How the MERS Defined Contribution Plan, 457 Program, and Health Care Savings Program work, including provisions offered and where you can locate your municipality’s specific benefit structure so you can see how what you report ultimately impacts your employees’ retirement benefits.
  • Some of the common compliance and reporting issues we see when employers submit reports.
  • A live demonstration of the Guided Payroll Process (GPP) (If possible, please bring a laptop so you can access your municipality's reports and information and follow along with the reporting demonstration).

We’ll wrap up the day with a chance to ask questions and chat with your peers. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of the reporting process and how to avoid making errors that could have unintended consequences.

Don't miss out! Attendance is limited so register today.

Please note: While this session takes place the day the 2026 MERS Annual Conference kicks off at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, you do not have to attend the conference to attend this training. However, if you'd like to attend the conference, you can register here.
