Welcome to FRU

Welcome to the Federal Retirement University, a Federal Times resource for federal employees mulling investment decisions to promote financial stability into the future.

With the help of certified financial planner Mike Miles, we will be adding content on a regular basis to this section of FederalTimes.com to expand the breadth of information and keep it current. Your financial future is important, and we want to help you plan it wisely.

The Federal Retirement University is not a degree-granting institution or certification program; it is a collection of informative resources organized along a "curriculum" metaphor to guide you toward an effective sequence for learning. However, you may feel free to explore the site in any way you want, viewing just those resources that seem of particular interest, if you prefer a self-guided approach. This resource is available for your enrichment, however you choose to use it.

Please feel free to send comments or questions to FederalRetirementUniversity@federaltimes.com.
