A Message from CEO Marilyn Stansbury

Workforce development is the most crucial issue that we face together in 2019. A solid workforce is crucial to your business and IECRM is dedicated to providing relevant services and benefits, working behind-the-scenes in partnership with state and county workforce development operations to create and ensure a skilled workforce pipeline for IECRM members.

In this issue, read about all of the free member benefits to help you find the next generation electrician: upcoming Career Fairs, the online Job Board, our Hire List, our committees at work, engagement with the state and county Workforce Development centers, and many other services IECRM delivers every day to support your business. Please take a moment and refamiliarize yourselves and your human resources staff with these very valuable tools.

In fact, we continue to be a bit amazed that the IECRM Job Board is one of the most underutilized tools we offer and we urge you to use it!

Read about a terrific Apprentice, a wonderful Contractor Member and a dedicated Platinum Partner in our Spotlight section. Also included are a few Legislative Updates and a reminder to sign up for your annual sponsorships, if you haven’t already.

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.
