2021 Summit Awards: New Categories, Dates, and Deadlines

Each year, IECRM recognizes excellence in the electrical construction and green building fields with its prestigious awards ceremony. The 2021 Call for Nominations will soon be announced, so it’s not too early to be thinking about your entries. 

Now more than ever, it is important to recognize excellence in our industry and celebrate the dedication and hard work of our essential employees. If you love what you do and are proud of your work and your people, be sure to enter because the show must go on!

There will be new award categories and more news about whether we can gather together in-person in April. Whether we are able to come together as a large group at our new venue, limited to coming together virtually, or a hybrid of the two, nominations are needed. 

Why enter the Summit Awards?  Why enter awards at all?

Awards…

  • Demonstrate your amazing talents and skills to the rest of the electrical contracting and construction sectors.
  • Raise your company’s profile and provide the opportunity for you to gain positive PR.

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.
