Employees' understanding of the benefits they're being offered is key to enrollment success, a recent survey by Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company and Employee Benefits News revealed. Given the changing healthcare landscape, plus the shifting perceptions of the value of benefits, an effective employee benefit communications strategy is now more important than ever.

Join us on April 13 for an in-depth 90-minute interactive webinar all about how to develop a strategic benefits communication strategy you can start applying now. Our expert -- a seasoned employee benefits communications consultant -- will teach you how to communicate changes to your benefits plans while increasing employees' understanding and appreciation for what you can offer. You'll learn:

• The most effective methods for getting your workforce to understand, and perhaps more importantly, appreciate, the benefits you offer
• How to position benefits for the most value - even if you don't offer the most expensive plans
• Mistakes to avoid when implementing your employee benefits communication strategy
• The essential components of every successful employee benefits communication strategy
• How to boost participation in tax-friendly options, such as health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts, and 401(k)s
• How to use social-networking tools like Twitter and blogs to bolster your year-round communication efforts
