CEO LETTER: Welcome to the All-Star Issue of IECRM News

It seems appropriate at this point in time, with all we’ve accomplished and those we’ve honored, to talk about what an all-star is and who becomes an all-star – especially in the electrical industry.

We have so many “all-star” accomplishments to acknowledge:

  • Summit Award Winners
  • Emerging Leaders 9.0 Class of 2021
  • IECRM’s Apprenticeship Graduating Class of 2021
  • Top Student Wire-Off Contestants and the IECRM Apprentice of the Year winner
  • Contractors that have successfully renewed their licenses
  • And those of you who will stand on the IEC National stage as winners in October

To be an all-star is to be a top performer, skilled and accomplished. The mere definition of all-star refers to someone who is highly skilled, so much so, he or she is often considered among the best and frequently referred to as a Master. We often see the all-star status as a one-way flight to greatness, an indelible marker; but all-stars also deal with setbacks of all kinds that are no different from others in their industry sector. Often they rise up again to all-star status.

In this issue…you will see that all-star also focuses on the journey — why we humbly dedicate ourselves to a profession or passion and own it while committing to mentoring others and doing great work. Our 4th-year apprentice graduates are on their way to a career that they never imagined would be so rewarding. Our Emerging Leaders 9.0 grads are evolving into tomorrow’s leaders with new skills, grace, and humility. Our Summit Award winners become models for success that teach and challenge us to be great. You all are All-Stars.

All-Star status is never conferred…it is earned through dedication, hard work, and proof of performance. This is how I feel about each one of our IECRM members, partners and apprentices. As we gear up to put on a great show in October at the IEC National Convention & Expo, I hope you will reach new heights of All-Star status. 

You are already there in my book,

Marilyn 

 

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.
