CEO Letter: Aspire Higher

Welcome to the Aspire Higher issue of IECRM’s e-news. At IECRM, everything we do is focused on powering forward to greater heights: powering your future, powering your business, and powering careers. In that, we continually aspire higher to enhance the richness and value of our training programs and curricula, our events, and your membership experience.

Aspiring Higher at IECRM is embedded in our leadership and invested in yours. We consistently adhere to the core values of integrity, competency, respect, service & collaboration and maintain a diligent commitment to advocacy for the industry. We also help you become aspiring lifelong learners in order to stay abreast of ever-changing skills and code requirements, remain atop technology innovation, and help you build successful businesses, careers, and a quality workforce.

Aspire Higher is evident in our upcoming Summit Awards. You see it in the companies and individuals who hope to win for the best projects and people. You will see it in the shining faces of our graduating class of 2021. They are just getting started and aspire to successful careers. The career fairs we hold and attend introduce a new audience of individuals looking for a meaningful career and a living wage. Our AMPLIFY pre-apprenticeship program, launching in June, is an aspirational experience of career discovery in the electrical industry for high school students and job seekers who are pondering their post-secondary careers or next career move. 

Finally, Aspire Higher is about believing in something larger than ourselves. There is no question that electricians power our world. You power our industry. You power people’s lives. You power our quality of life. You also power the forces of strength, vitality, safety, and security for us all. 

#WeAreIEC and together we Aspire Higher,

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.
