The Western Pension & Benefits Conference (WP&BC) was founded in San Francisco in 1954 to address the educational needs of pension specialists. Through the years, WP&BC expanded its scope to include those with responsibilities in the health and welfare fields. Today, WP&BC is recognized as the premier educational and professional organization in the western United States for the dynamic field of employee benefits. We now have nearly 2,000 members located within 12 chapters. Our purpose is to educate, provide information and foster sound principles of benefit plan governance within the industry.
