Join the CAAT Insights Panel

The CAAT Pension Plan is evolving. We’re always adapting to meet your needs, and as a Plan member, we have some exciting opportunities for you.

Our CAAT Insights Panel is a community of members who are interested in sharing their feedback and we’re looking for panelists. We’d like your feedback on everything from how we communicate with you to the services we provide.

Your pension plan is an integral part of your life – from the contributions you make each paycheque to the financial security you get in retirement. That’s why your feedback on our services is so important.

Your opinions will have a direct impact on how members and Canadians live, today and in retirement. You will be invited to take part in surveys, polls and discussions with the team at CAAT and other panel members. Our CAAT Insights Panel is a community of passionate Plan members. You can join us today!

Check your email for an invitation to join the CAAT Insights Panel – or send an email to caatpensionplan@caatpension.ca letting us know you’re interested in being a part of the Insights Panel.

What’s your Pensionality?

There’s a lot to learn about your pension, no matter what life stage you’re in. Take our Pensionality quiz to find out how your pension is growing throughout your career, at every milestone, to support you in retirement. The more you know about your pension, the better you can prepare for retirement.

Plus, get an inside look into each Pensionality profile on the member blog. New entries are published every other month, so bookmark this page and check back for the latest on your profile.

Listen to the Contributors podcast

Tune in to the latest episode of Contributors, featuring a conversation between host Russell Evans and Maple Co-Founder and CEO, Brett Belchetz. The conversation explores the evolution of Maple and how it is now allowing over four million Canadians to access healthcare from the comfort of their own home. Brett also discusses how to overcome, and even embrace resistance when trying to accomplish something new and transformational.

We’re innovating for you!

At CAAT, we’re driven to continue to innovate to respond to evolving member needs. As a CAAT member, you share your thoughts in member surveys, information sessions, through our contact centre, and on our social media channels. We’ve heard you say you’d like a way for CAAT to manage your additional retirement savings – savings you have outside of your CAAT pension. So, we’re working on it!

Here’s a sneak peek of what we’re doing – we’ll share more when we can, but in the meantime, join our Insights Panel to provide valuable feedback about how our new innovations are being developed.
