Are Leaders Made or Born? Independent Electrical Contractors – Rocky Mountain says Leaders are Cultivated

Each year, the Independent Electrical Contractors-Rocky Mountain (IECRM) cultivates future leaders from its member companies through its Emerging Leaders program.  The program is designed to create value and tap into the desire to learn how to be enterprising, persistent and bold.  IECRM is accepting nominations from members for the 2018-2019 program.  The deadline is July 31.

Colorado’s future electrical contracting and renewable energy leaders must be nominated by a sponsor within their company to be able to participate in the August 2018 to April 2019 program.  Emerging Leaders meet approximately six days over the nine-month program to participate in leadership training.

“Cultivating talent is how our industry succeeds,” says Kori Hemans, Chief Financial Officer at IECRM. “Our organization supports our member companies by helping them identify employees who are passionately focused and interested in growth.  Our job is to train these hand-selected individuals to understand that “why” is important, and how to engage in the vision of their company and this industry in order to make the vision more meaningful and successful.”

Throughout the nine-month program, participants experience workshops and discussions about personal leadership, government relations, technology, safety training and community service.   IECRM’s Emerging Leaders committee designs and oversees each session and is comprised by the organization’s members, partners and staff.  Apprentices, supervisors, and even established managers participate in the training program each year.

“This leadership training is uniquely designed to help leaders-to-be get ready for new challenges and responsibilities,” says Hemans.  “Through role-playing, self-assessment and other leadership development methods we help participants explore leadership roles as strategists, change agents, coaches, managers, communicators, mentors, and team members.”

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.
