DRESHER, Pa. - Aug. 16, 2013 - PRLog -- Ascensus, the nation’s largest independent retirement plan provider, today announced that it has been awarded an APEX 2013 Award of Excellence for The Road to Retirement, an interactive board game for financial organizations to teach and apply basic IRA rules.

More than 2,400 entries were evaluated for the 25th annual Awards for Publication Excellence. With its interactive game board and playing pieces, The Road to Retirement won an award of excellence out of 237 entries in the Design & Illustration category.

For over 30 years, Ascensus has provided solutions to help financial organizations keep their retirement and savings plan programs in compliance and their staff members well‐trained. The Road to Retirement was introduced to its line-up of training materials for financial organizations in 2007 and is used as part of their internal IRA training or as a separate tool for review. With continued feedback from clients, it evolved into the award-winning learning tool used today.

“Applying what’s been learned after IRA training is key for internal trainers at financial organizations,” said Steve Christenson, Executive Vice President of Retirement Products & Solutions at Ascensus. “Ascensus decided to take the complexity of IRA rules and regulations and turn it into something fun, yet effective.” 

Ascensus has been winning APEX awards for its reference manuals, training materials, and newsletters since 1992, including a 2011 award for Publication Excellence for its HSA Training Organizer.
