Each 'New joiners' session has a maximum capacity of 10,000 participants. Members are encouraged to book only one session per day to ensure others have the opportunity to attend.
After booking, you'll receive an email from Civil Service Pensions with a calendar invitation to add to your daily schedule, so you don’t forget to attend!
Whilst we make every effort to ensure as many members as possible are able to attend these sessions, we know some members may be impacted by their employer's IT restrictions and will be unable to access the YouTube links where we host our videos.
The live webinars will use Microsoft Teams; If you're using a mobile device, please download the Teams app ready to attend your webinar. If you're using a Windows Desktop, then you can access the webinar using your browser.
If your employer's IT security prevents you from accessing these external websites, we suggest using your personal device (smartphone, tablet or laptop) using your own WIFI network, or watch the sessions on catch up on the scheme website.
This session introduces the Civil Service Pensions scheme. Whether you're new to the scheme or have been a member for some time, you'll gain insights into how the scheme works and the benefits it offers.

In alpha you'll build up an annual pension, get tax relief on the pension contributions you make and have the option of tax-free lump sum when you retire.
Your pension builds up quickly when you add your member contribution to your generous employers contribution. For example, if you earn between £23,101 and £45,500, you will contribute 5.45% of your salary and your employer will contribute 27.1%, meaning for every £1 you contribute, your employer will contribute almost £5.
The Civil Service Pensions Podcast will help you get to grips with your pension and make more informed choices about your financial future, whatever stage of life you're at.
Available now, wherever you get your podcasts.
If you're using your mobile data to join the webinar then you'll be charged by your mobile operator according to your data bundle and tariff. We advise connecting to wifi to attend the webinars for Pension Awareness Month.
You can find out the topics for each day by navigating to the Pension Awareness Week hub
You'll be able to pose questions to our experts. There'll also be some case studies which are relevant to real life pension scenarios.
You can attend as many as you wish, but as the sessions are ran twice a day, with the same content, there's no need to book twice on any one day.
You don't need to do anything. When you receive the invite on email just ignore it and don't attend the webinar.
