Welcome!
The SW Division IAEI consists of a diverse membership representing major stakeholders in the local electrical industry.
19 southwest Ohio counties form the SW Division IAEI. These counties are well represented by local electrical contractors, inspectors, plans examiners and engineers. Utility representation includes Duke Energy, DP&L, and Butler Rural. Testing lab representation includes UL and ETL. The talent present at our monthly meetings is significant and beneficial to all who attend.
The SW Division meets the second Wednesday of each month from 9:30 AM until 12:00PM in the James Monroe Community Room at the Monroe, Ohio city building. Each meeting (with the exception of the February Annual Luncheon Meeting) provides 2 hours of training. This training is recognized as suitable for Ohio Board of Building Standards certifications, Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board certifications, and beginning in 2010, state of Kentucky certifications. Each Fall the SW Division also provides a certified 30-hour NEC refresher course.
Our educational efforts not only provide affordable education for the local electrical industry, they also fund an extensive technical library, a scholarship program and an electrical trades program. Each year the SW Division awards 5 needs based $1000.00 scholarships and makes available 10 needs based $250.00 “tool bag awards”. Scholarships are available to the sons, daughters, grandsons and granddaughters of SW Division members in good standing. Tool bag awards are available to qualifying vocational school students. (No IAEI affiliation is required for a vocational school student to win a tool bag award.)
Please accept my personal invitation to join us in promoting electrical safety. Come visit a meeting…you will be glad you did!
See you at the next meeting!
