Most FPSE members are members of the College Pension Plan. FPSE members who work as support staff in public institutions are members of the Municipal Pension Plan. Both plans are jointly trusteed, which means that unions appoint trustees to sit on the governing board.
FPSE’s Pension Advisory Committee provides advice and information on pension-related issues.
