A Love Letter from the CEO

IEC Rocky Mountain Team

At this time every year, IECRM focuses the February eNews edition on our love for you and the electrical industry. We love when you share stories of “that’s my project!” We love it when you schedule meetings in the building at the IECRM main & Ft. Collins campuses; it brings energy to the building in the daytime just as apprentices light up the classroom in the evening. And we love celebrating your business milestones and learning with you about the innovations and evolutions in the electrical, energy, and systems contracting industry. 

This month’s articles highlight important member benefits and opportunities to learn, grow, and network in 2022. Review the Events calendar and save the dates! 

And please note there are 3 things we would love for YOU to do this month to share the love! 

RSVP to attend the BJ4C Reception. It is critical to our industry during this legislative session to embrace the political process and be an active participant. The session is still early and we are rapidly seeing bills introduced or considered that will impact the electrical, energy construction industry, and general business. I would love to see you there and introduce you to your locally elected state legislative leaders. They love to hear from you also on the issues that are important to Colorado, our workforce, education and the economy. Drinks and appetizers will be served.

Sign up to engage in one of our active Committees. The following committees have a full agenda for 2022 and we look forward to seeing & learning from you: Government Relations, Events, Membership, Safety, Emerging Leaders, and Diversity & Inclusion. Many of these committees now meet via zoom so members and partners throughout our association territory can participate, meet new contacts in your network, and learn more about giving back in the industry. 

Submit your nomination for a 2022 IECRM Summit Award. The newly reformatted online applications are ready for your nomination for the people, projects, and innovations you have been part of over the last year. If you’ve never submitted for a summit award before,  this is your year to do so, with new and expanded categories so that every size company and specialty niche within the industry can be recognized for your accomplishments! More details aboutIECRM Summit Awards can be found here. If you need help getting started, email me at [email protected]. 

February is American Heart Month. The last two years have caused us all to feel as if we’ve sometimes skipped a beat. Stress levels have soared while physical and mental health habits have been challenged. Use this annual heart awareness month to refresh yourself and your team on the warning signs of a heart attack and stroke. If your team is not fully trained on CPR and first aid, IECRM offers CPR certification for the industry at our main campus or for your company at your location.  Contact [email protected] for more information. 

All our love, 

Marilyn & the IECRM Team

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.
