What Makes the TEXPERS 2025 Summer Educational Forum in El Paso One-of-a-Kind?
This summer, TEXPERS invites you to join us in El Paso for a conference experience that blends fiduciary excellence with regional charm, exclusive networking, and practical education.
More Than a Conference—It’s an Experience
From a pre-forum VIP soccer night and off-site winery social to daily networking breakfasts and CE-accredited sessions, our TEXPERS 2025 Summer Educational Forum is built to connect, educate, and energize our members in a setting that’s anything but routine.
Why El Paso?
Our Sun City setting offers sweeping views, regional flavors, and walkable access to local culture. With our venue split between the El Paso Convention Center and the historic Hotel Paso del Norte, you’ll enjoy the best of convenience and class.
Learn & Earn
Whether you're a pension trustee, administrator, or investment advisor, our program delivers Texas PRB-accredited Continuing Education hours in topics that matter:
- Governance
- Risk and compliance
- Portfolio strategy
- Legislative and policy updates
CE-Credited Education That Counts
TEXPERS’ Summer Educational Forum isn’t just informative—it’s essential.
Trustees and administrators of Texas public employee retirement systems are required by state law to complete Minimum Educational Training (MET). This Forum delivers those hours in a format that’s convenient, engaging, and fully accredited by the Texas Pension Review Board.
✅ Earn your state-mandated continuing education hours
✅ Stay in compliance while gaining practical knowledge
✅ Learn from leading voices in investment, governance, and pension policy
System Members—this is your opportunity to meet training obligations while gaining real-world insights.
Network With Purpose
Don’t miss our most talked-about event: Monday night at the Rio Grande Winery, just across the state line. With scenic views, regional wine, and relaxed conversation, it’s one of the most valuable relationship-building experiences we offer all year.
