Over 30 years ago a small group of electrical contractors who shared the merit shop philosophy came together to form the Albuquerque Chapter of the IEC. They hoped strength in numbers would help them preserve merit shop ideals, network on best business practices and train future electricians. Today, Northern New Mexico Independent Electrical Contractors has become one of the largest and most successful apprenticeship programs in the state. In addition, NNMIEC provides electrical safety training and journeyman continuing education.
NNMIEC members all share the merit shop philosophy of free enterprise, open competition, and economic opportunity for all. Our mission is to be professional contractors / professional people working together for mutual success.
