Reinventing Retirement
Do you want to move on to the next chapter in your life where career is no longer the predominant focus? If you want to shift your focus away from a full-time career to a next chapter that may or may not include “work” of some form, you will benefit from Reinventing Retirement—a course that will introduce new ways of thinking about retirement. From meaningful new forms of work to community engagement to lifelong learning, the potential outlets for post-career avenues will be discussed. Among other important discoveries, you will build on your sense of purpose and passions; explore new roles and potential outlets for your experience, skills and passions; identify options and resources for lifelong learning and renewal; and begin exploring and experimenting by trying out new ideas and possibilities. Leave with an expanded perspective and a vision for living this next chapter in your life. Prerequisite: Planning for Change in the Third Age workshop.
