Make Your Membership Really Give Back to You – Get Involved!

Of course, some reasons to serve on a committee could be that you want to make the world a better place, desire to improve the organization’s service to members and care about the cause. And serving on a committee and bringing your knowledge, energy, and expertise to the table is something that can not only benefit the organization but you as well.

Serving on an IECRM committee creates a membership experience that is engaging and meaningful by continuously providing compelling opportunities for professional enrichment. Through your committee engagement – whether you are a new member or a long-tenured one – you can achieve a deeper connection to our organization and its members.

IECRM offers you several volunteer committees that meet regularly. The committees typically each have a Chair, Co-Chair, and IECRM Staff Liaison. Committees are considered working committees, as they are responsible for tasks to advance the work of IECRM. Committees provide recommendations or pertinent issues back to the IECRM staff or full Board of Directors for review.

Take a look at the committees of IECRM, what they do, and who leads them (here).

The Emerging Leaders Committee develops and oversees the IECRM Emerging Leaders Program, a 6-month course designed to advance the business skills and network of mid-career individuals that are on the trajectory for senior-level leadership within their companies and the industry.
Chair: Jason Nagel, RK Electric

 

The Government Relations Committee advocates and monitors political activities in order to support legislation favorable to IECRM contractor members while opposing legislation that would negatively impact merit shop electrical contractors and independent businesses.
Chair: David Scott, Encore Electric

 

The Membership and Events Committee is responsible for providing high-quality benefits and value-added services to attract and retain Contractor Members and Industry Partners, assisting in the oversight of the annual calendar of events, selection and evaluation of events, and contacting members for participation and support.
Chair: Nick Lovell, Outsource

 

The Safety Committee plans and develops programs for members to create workforce safety awareness, works with regulatory agencies with any updates or changes to safety policies, and shares resources and safety best practices through monthly safety forums open to all IECRM members.
Liaison: Paul Lingo, IECRM

 

Diversity & Inclusion Committee develops strategies to recruit, retain, and recognize the diversity of people, range of interests, experiences, values, and cultural richness that define our industry and the IECRM community.
Chair: Leighland Gutierrez, Courtsey Electric

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.
