A Message from Paul Lingo, IECRM’s Training Director:

Due to current protocols with COVID-19, IECRM will be offering Hybrid Apprenticeship Classes for the 1st Semester of the 2020-21 school year. All IECRM Apprenticeship course work will be conducted ONLINE, led in real-time by Instructors. We will have dedicated Labs/ Practical Objectives scheduled throughout the semester so that IECRM students can receive hands-on learning if they choose to attend. We encourage all registering students to ensure a solid internet connection and technology to enhance the class experience. Laptops, desktop CPUs, or tablets are recommended; cell phones will work but will provide the least quality for the class experience.  

IECRM is working with ever-changing guidelines for in-class sessions and we are hoping to return to normal as soon as possible. Please stay tuned and we will update you as soon as we can.

We hope you are feeling prepared with the upcoming student registration!

Here is a link to our training presentation as a resource for you. It’s about an hour and a half long, and you can of course skip through as needed. 

As a reminder, to receive your early bird and member discounts, your membership must be paid in full. You can view the status of your payments in the My Transactions section. 

NEW: Instructions for registration, checking grades and attendance, approving OJT work reports, and more can now be easily found on the left column when you open FlashPoint (see below).

To better serve the needs of the IECRM contractors and requests for improved apprenticeship management, IECRM launched a new enterprise system called FlashPoint to track all apprenticeship actions, including real-time OJT hours, registration and tuition, grades and attendance, and much more! Contractors, please update the contractor contacts that need access to student record management in FlashPoint by completing this form. Credentials will be issued within 1 business day.

IECRM’s four-year expert program is accredited by the US Department of Labor (DOL), Office of Apprenticeship (OA/BAT), recognized by the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs and approved and regulated by the Colorado Department of Higher Education, Division of Private Occupational Schools Board.  

In addition to being the only state-approved electrical training school in Colorado, and one of the top electrical apprenticeship training programs in the country, IECRM students also earn up to 44 credit hours toward any Colorado community college.  These credits are transferable to an Associate’s in Applied Science or an Applied Technology degree.

The vast majority of students are employed as apprentices while they are attending school at IECRM. Graduates literally ‘earn while they learn’ and many contractor employers pay for their electrical students’ schooling.  Also, graduates typically earn $40,000-$50,000 after graduation, with no school debt.

Unemployed students can apply for tuition assistance and may receive free tuition and books. 

“Virtually all of our students leave our program with no debt, a full-time job, skills that take them anywhere, and a living wage to support a family,” says Stansbury.

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.
