Self-study course assists those planning for retirement
The Center on Education and Work (CEW) recently launched "Planning for Retirement: Exploring Your Career and Leisure Options," an online, independent-study course using the university's Learn@UW Web site.

According to the stereotypical view, retirement involves ceasing to work and going off, for example, to travel and visit the grandkids. Today, however, baby boomers reaching that stage in their lives have more options, Judy Ettinger, an emerita senior outreach specialist at CEW says. And they don't necessarily stop working.
