Whether or not you’re feeling the love this Valentine’s Day (I’ve hit my head too many times on hanging heart decorations and eaten too much chocolate already), we can celebrate the International Foundation products and services our members love having access to, as evidenced from our recent member satisfaction survey report. Because working in benefits is like a box of chocolates (you never know what’s going to come up that day!), make sure you’re taking advantage of the five most loved membership benefits listed below!

Your Benefits Box of Chocolates
Some of our most loved member benefits, which you’ll love, too:

  1. Regulatory Updates: When cupid’s arrow misses and we’re struck with confusion instead, Regulatory Updates provide quick access to employee benefit regulations, rulings and other guidance released by governmental agencies. (Members working with benefits in the United States also love keeping an eye on the latest ACA developments in the The Future of ACA page in ACA Central!)
  2. U.S. Legislative Tracker and Canadian Legislative Scorecard: All U.S. or Canadian legislative updates in one place? What’s not to love about that? The trackers include selected proposed and enacted legislation related to employee benefits and compensation.
  3. Discounted Education: Flowers eventually wilt but member discounts keep on growing! Save on registration fees for hundreds of conferences and e-learning courses throughout the year, in addition to saving 25% on books published by the Foundation.
  4. Financial Education/Retirement Security web page: Sharing is caring! This International Foundation site contains tools for plan sponsors to share with plan participants regarding their retirement benefits, including the helpful Retirement 101 tool.
  5. Today’s Headlines: You’ve Got Mail! And it’s not from Meg Ryan or Tom Hanks. It’s your daily dose of top employee benefits news stories, carefully compiled from thousands of sources. Be the first to know the latest industry happenings, without having to search for them.

That’s not all there is to love about being an International Foundation member. View a full listing of membership benefits, and celebrate this fine Hallmark holiday by embracing the helpful products and services available to you!

Personal Insight: It’s all about balance with Anne. She loves to run and enjoys a good culinary adventure.
