CEO Letter – June 2023 – Summer of Success
Congratulations to IECRM’s Class of 2023 Apprentice Graduates. This class represents all that the energy industry needs in the next-generation electrician: adaptability, resilience, perseverance, and innovation. These are the apprentices that were told in their first year of apprenticeship that something called ‘coronavirus’ would now require them to wear masks to work, to continue to work collaboratively while staying six feet apart, and they were considered “essential” (a fact that was already evident to the rest of us)!
Early Bird Registration for the new IECRM Class of 2027 begins on June 19th for members.
Kudos also to the 15 graduates of the ‘pre-apprentice’ AMPLIFY program – 12 of them are now employed by our IECRM electrical contractors! ️ The next AMPLIFY program concludes on June 29 with a Summer Career Fair. Join us to interview this new group of young people and other candidates we are reaching out to be there to meet you!
And our 20 shining star Emerging Leaders class raised $11,020 for Denver’s Children’s Home as part of their 9-month industry-specific leadership development program. Have an emerging leader on your team? Applications are now open for the next cohort of leaders!
Come play with us outdoors this summer: we SOLD OUT the Clay Shoot but come be a sponsor or volunteer to network with 200 others! Be with us July 31 – August 3 as we welcome more than 2200 apprentices back to school and see the innovations in products and services from our industry partners at our 2023 Energy Expo! Then join us as we swing through the rest of summer at the Annual IECRM Golf Tournament where 216 powerful professionals network and drive the future forward!
Let the sunshine in,
Marilyn
