Legislative Advocacy for the Industry – We Need Your Voice!

There is strength in numbers. This legislative session needs more representation for the independent electrical contracting industry!

Join us on Wednesday, February 14th at 7:30 a.m. Via Zoom for a special IECRM Member Forum on Advocacy and the 2024 Colorado Legislative Session. IECRM is working with House and Senate sponsors on a bill intended to clarify various aspects of state electrical licensure, DORA jurisdiction and scopes of work related to electrical installations, including creating a workforce pathway for solar technicians to enter a career as a licensed electrician. Please RSVP for the zoom link. 

If you are interested in actively participating in representing and advocating for the independent electrical contracting industry, whether at the State Capitol or via text and email communications, please sign up for the IECRM Government Relations Committee.

The committee is open to current members of IECRM and meets virtually during the Jan-May legislative session on the first and third Wednesdays at 7:30 am. As a collective group, members review proposed legislation and take action to support, monitor or oppose legislation that will impact the industry. Sign up to be in the know and help elevate the voice of the independent electrical contracting industry.

FOR ALL BILLS currently in review, please refer to the 2024 IECRM Bill Tracker:

From time to time during the legislative session, you may receive an ACTION ALERT email from [email protected] requesting your engagement to testify, call, email a member of the legislature or congress; or to respond with examples that will help the IECRM association understand a proposed impact on the industry. We value and NEED YOUR VOICE when those alerts are distributed.

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.
