What is PSERS?
A. PSERS stands for (Pennsylvania Public School Employee’s Retirement System). All AIU employees who work 80 days or 500 hours are automatically enrolled into PSERS when hired. Employee’s contribute 7.5% of their annual salary to this retirement system. Employees are fully vested after five years. When fully vested, the AIU matches your 7.5% and the state matches your 7.5% for all five years worked, along with years of service going forward.
