Ascensus introduces new education seminar for 2016: Ascend

Ascensus streamlines two premier training events as the retirement and savings industry evolves

As a respected leader in the retirement and savings industry, Ascensus has been providing education and training for financial organizations for nearly 40 years. Ascensus historically has held two separate training events: Fall Forum and IRA Supertrain®. As the industry marketplace has changed and training methods have evolved, Ascensus looked to streamline its seminar offerings for 2016. In response to these changes, Ascensus is launching Ascend.

Ascend will provide the same level of excellence and expertise that financial organizations have come to expect from Ascensus’ education seminars. This event will offer attendees new courses but also will have familiar attributes from both Fall Forum and IRA Supertrain. “We’re very excited to bring together two very successful education training events. It is not only an opportunity to streamline these events and continue our high-quality training, but also bring exciting changes in course topics and design,” said Megan Morgan, Director of Product Management.
