Cultivating Leadership Key to Industry Success

Each year, IECRM cultivates leaders-to-be from its member companies through its Emerging Leaders (EL) program. In its 8th year, the program is designed to tap into the desire to learn how to be enterprising, persistent, and bold. This year, 21 Emerging Leaders from IECRM member companies are graduating from EL 8.0.

“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 what 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.”

Community service is one of the areas the IECRM program emphasizes over the course of the nine-month program. This year’s EL class has launched a fundraising effort to give back to our community through a special campaign to support Freedom Service Dogs of America, a non-profit that trains dogs for adults and children with disabilities and needs as well as veterans with PTSD. ELs are asking friends, family, coworkers, and leaders of the industry to take time out of their busy schedules and consider donating to this effort.  More information is available on this downloadable PDF.
If you would like to be a part of this project, you can donate between June 1st-30th.  All donations, large and small are greatly appreciated.

You can send check or Amazon Wishlist donations to:

In addition to community service, the program provides experiential workshops and discussions about personal leadership, government relations, technology, and safety training.

“This leadership training is uniquely designed to help leaders-to-be get ready for new challenges and responsibilities,” says Kori. “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 is accepting nominations from members for the 2020-2021 program. Please contact Kori Hemans ([email protected]) for more information about how to become part of IECRM’s Emerging Leaders program or to nominate a candidate.

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.
