2019 New Year’s Resolution IECRM 2025 – Advocate, Educate, Grow, Recognize

At IECRM we resolve each year to provide great opportunities to you for lifelong learning, skill development, best business practices, and association involvement. This year, we are embracing IEC National’s Vision 2025 which commits to do more in advocacy, education, business growth and recognition for our members, partners and apprentices. While 1 in 3 people make new year’s resolutions, fewer than that manage to stay true to their resolutions by about March! Our members help hold us accountable for our resolutions, so here’s our 2019 list… we hope there’s something here that might trigger a New Year’s resolution for you and your business:

Keep Pace with the Changing Education Climate to meet the demands of 21st century learning. By the end of 2019, our students will be utilizing a new cloud-based system for attendance, quizzes, grades, and homework.

Identify, Procure, or Upgrade Technology to meet the needs of members and students. The new enterprise system will enable real-time access to up-to-date student information for students and contractors, fully detailed company and individual records with the ability to segment for relevant communications, improved registration for apprenticeship as well as classes and events, and workflow efficiencies and reduced redundancies in both the classroom and in the office with online quizzes, registration, OJT forms, and much more.

Make Better Informed Decisions about ideas and strategies based on a critical analysis of member needs, data from our new enterprise system, and frequent communications with members.

Respond to Population Shifts to embrace how our world and the U.S. workforce and economy are changing. As the retirement population continues to have impact on availability of skilled electricians, position our organization to train and produce the ‘next generation’ of elections and leaders. At the same time, ensure that diversity and inclusion are ingrained in IECRM’s DNA.

Market and Communicate the IECRM Story Effectively and Often with emphasis on a stronger value proposition, testimonials, industry trends, and priorities in education and training. We’ll tell these stories with emotional appeal, impact, and benefits.

 

IECRM Self-Pay Tuition Policy

 

Self-pay students who are employed with a member company must register and pay through the member company using the IECRM Flashpoint Enrollment Portal/Process in order to qualify for member rates.

Self-pay students that are employed with a member company but that do not register and pay through the member will be charged the non-member rate for tuition, books and applicable fees.


Self-pay students who are employed with a member company and require a payment plan will not qualify for the member rate and will be charged the non-member rate for tuition, books and applicable fees.


Self-pay students who do not work for a member company will continue to be charged the non-member rate for tuition, books and applicable fees.


To maximize association/membership benefits, ALL member companies are encouraged to register and pay for all enrolled apprentices utilizing internal payment arrangements and processes between employer and employee.


We value our IECRM members and apprentice community. We encourage all apprentices to be enrolled in the four-year apprenticeship program, earning, and learning their way toward Journeyworker licensure. We encourage all members to utilize the member discount for tuition, books and applicable fees to ensure the long-term support and success of the next-generation electrician.


(Payment Plans are available, please reference the Self Pay Payment Plan Policy.)


Self-Pay Payment Plan Policy


We offer the following arrangements for students that are unable to pay in full at the time of registration.


● Self-pay students will be charged the non-member rate.
● A 50% down payment of total semester tuition, books and applicable fees are due at registration.
● Remaining balance can be divided up to 3 additional monthly payments ($10.00 processing fee applies on each installment)
● All payments that are declined will incur a $20.00 NSF fee.

 

We encourage all students who are employed with a member company to work with their employer to register and pay through the IECRM Flashpoint Enrollment Portal/Process. This will ensure the student is paying the lowest possible rate for tuition, books and applicable fees.
