FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LOCAL PROFESSIONAL WORKS TO MEET CHANGING SENIOR NEEDS
Stewart Burk,
with Knights of Columbus completed a
comprehensive course on priority senior issues on
May 4, 2007. The course is conducted by the Canadian Academy
of Senior Advisors, the Canadian licensee of the Society of
Certified Senior Advisors, an International organization that has trained
over 19,000 professionals in North America. Successful participants
complete a thorough examination to earn the Certified Senior Advisor, CSA™
designation. Stewart Burk has
taken this educational initiative to become a professional leader in
meeting the key needs and issues concerning senior citizens.
Professionals in the fields of medicine, insurance, investments and
recreation require a broad spectrum of information to serve the needs of
seniors. Whether financial, medical or social, senior concerns are
different from other age groups. The Canadian Academy of Senior Advisors
keeps the professional abreast of all these issues by providing education,
monthly updates, support and marketing assistance regarding new
developments, practices, and research about senior citizens in Canada
today.
In the history of the world, two-thirds of all people who have lived past
the age of 65 are alive today. In Canada, seniors (age 65 and older)
number almost four million and will continue to rapidly increase, leading
a shift in population distribution by age never before seen. This
demographic shift requires an educated response in how professionals work
with the challenges and opportunities seniors face.
As a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA),
Stewart Burk will participate annually in
continuing education provided by the Academy. The CSA membership will
ensure that Stewart remains an informed
professional for the 50 plus and senior citizens.
