Higher Education Study

Connecting Higher Education Workplace Benefits

New expectations and new ideas

 

Voya recently conducted a study of retirement plans in public and private higher education. We surveyed higher education plan sponsors about key issues impacting the structure and management of their defined contribution retirement plans. Our survey found that higher education institutions are pivoting to address ongoing staffing challenges and shifting the benefits dialogue to meet employee expectations.
