Mandatory Annual IECRM Contractor Meeting

Attendance is required for contractors who are part of the State Apprenticeship Agency – Apprenticeship Colorado (formally OA Program).

IECRM is a certified training provider and sponsor for the Colorado State Apprenticeship Agency (SAA). This designation allows our member companies with employees in our IECRM Apprenticeship School to bid on government projects with Davis-Bacon wage requirements on a tiered scale. This tiered scale enables your company to provide more competitive bids.

The Annual Contractor meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, January 17, 2024, at the Main IECRM Campus in Northglenn – Lunch will be provided. The meeting will begin promptly at 11:00 AM and end at 2:00 PM.

If you are registered with IECRM as an SAA Contractor, please RSVP for the Annual IECRM Contractor Meeting. This meeting is required for SAA contractors and will cover important rules, regulations, updates, and the rights and responsibilities of SAA-registered employers and apprentices for 2024. If you cannot attend, please send a representative from your company.

To be registered with this Program, the contractor’s membership must be in good standing at IECRM. Apprentices must be registered in the program and enrolled in classes or signed up for the next enrollment period at IECRM. Finally, apprentices must complete on-the-job training (OJT) forms monthly on FlashPoint. 

The SAA Program registration ties directly to the requirements to sit for a Journeyman’s license. To take the Journeyman exam, apprentices must have a combination of four years of “on-the-job” training experience and 8,000 OJT hours. Licensure as a Journeyman requires only 288 hours of classroom training. However, apprentices must have 576 hours of classroom training to earn a Program Certificate from the Colorado State Apprenticeship Agency, which verifies documented hours of electrical training.
If you are not registered with us as an SAA Contractor or have questions about registering, please email Michael Davis, IECRM Compliance Manager, at [email protected] and/or RSVP to attend the Mandatory OA Meeting to learn more.

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.
