new CEOs and employees to development opportunities for aspiring and seasoned leaders, NRECA's educational offerings are designed to help you succeed in today's rapidly changing and complex electric utility industry. Yes Yes Why Professional Development? ----------------------------- Landing Page About **We Need an Educated Workforce to Lead the Way** By investing in continuous learning (for yourself and/or your staff) your co-op is making a commitment not only to individual professional and personal growth, but to the future of your co-op and the high quality of service your member-owners expect and deserve. In the four brief videos below, hear more from our members and colleagues about the importance of ongoing education. **Chapter 1:**[Why invest in professional development?](https://vimeo.com/nrecaeducation/review/171996428/ad97647daa) **Chapter 2:**[What are the benefits to the employee?](https://vimeo.com/nrecaeducation/review/173757878/75619f374f) **Chapter 3:**[What's in it for the Cooperative?](https://vimeo.com/nrecaeducation/review/173757773/4a3966a54d) **Chapter 4:**[What does NRECA offer that no other training provider can?](https://vimeo.com/nrecaeducation/review/173757772/e9a7896c4b) #### Top 5 Reasons to Invest in Professional Development for You and Your Staff [accordions] [accordion title="1.%20Keep%20Up%20with%20(and%20Ahead%20of)%20Changes%20in%20the%20Industry"]Our industry is changing. Our relationship with our member owners is changing. In order to keep up with the latest industry trends, technologies and best practices, co-ops need an educated and connected workforce.[/accordion] [accordion title="2.%20Educated%20Workforce%20%3D%20Successful%20Co-op%20%3D%20High-Quality%20Member%20Service"]Co-op employees need to master various core competencies and skills to perform their jobs successfully. An educated work force benefits not just that individual, but the co-op they support and the community they serve.[/accordion] [accordion title="3.%20Tap%20into%20the%20Power%20of%20the%20Network"]By building and nurturing professional relationships from across the country, participants in continuous learning events create a valuable support network that lives beyond the classroom. They can interact with colleagues who are going through the same challenges and exchange and learn from each other’s experiences, lessons learned and best practices. Many participants develop friendships that lead to career-long partnerships across the network. All of this adds to the development and success of these individuals and their performance back at their co-op.[/accordion] [accordion title="4.%20Gain%20a%20New%20Perspective%2C%20Share%20Renewed%20Enthusiasm"]By leaving the office to attend education opportunities, participants get the valuable chance to step away from their daily routine and focus on the big picture. This gives learners energy and empowers them with new ideas and renewed enthusiasm to bring back to benefit the co-op.[/accordion] [accordion title="5.%20Employees%20Want%20to%20Learn"]The best and brightest of today’s competitive workforce value and expect professional development opportunities to be available at their workplace. By offering employees the opportunity to learn, co-ops are providing the critical professional, leadership and management education, practical resources and national professional network that will help new and existing employees be successful leaders and co-ops retain their most valuable assets.

We Know Co-ops. * Our learning activities incorporate co-op specific case studies, examples and discussions so learners focus on their particular job/situation * We solicit input and feedback from NRECA member organizations to help guide the creation of our programs—ensuring we are addressing the issues and topics of most importance to our members * Wherever possible, we strive to use [instructors](https://www.cooperative.com/conferences-education/Instructors/Pages/default.aspx) who have worked for or with electric cooperatives. On average they have more than 20 years co-op experience. #### WHAT PROGRAMS DO YOU OFFER? NRECA's [competency-based](https://www.cooperative.com/conferences-education/competencies/Pages/default.aspx) education programs and events are designed to target content and skills practice that are relevant and transferrable to the workplace. We offer a wide range of co-op specific programs across a variety of topic areas. We’ve organized our learning offerings into 9 distinct categories. * Communications, Marketing and Member Services * Co-op Administration, Benefits, Finance and HR * Director Education * General Electric Co-op Industry * Legislative, Regulatory, Legal and Advocacy Issues * Personal Effectiveness * Safety and Loss Control * Supervisory, Management and Leadership * Technology (Includes Distributed Energy Resources, Engineering, Operations and Power Supply) #### Where Can I Take These Courses? In addition to our face-to-face conferences and meetings (most offered annually), we offer a wide range of courses and programs that can be experienced in a variety of different venues and formats. [accordions] [accordion title="On-Site%20at%20Your%20Statewide%2C%20G%26T%20or%20Co-op"]You can arrange for NRECA to present our director and employee courses at your co-op. [On-site training](https://www.cooperative.com/conferences-education/onsite-training/Pages/default.aspx) gives you the opportunity to provide education programs for more of your directors and employees than you could by sending them to distant locations for training. It also allows for continuity of learning as your directors and employees learn as a cohort and can work together to apply their learning back in the boardroom or workplace. To learn more about bringing courses to your cooperative, visit our Courses page and choose “onsite” as the “Type” of course you are looking for. Additionally, you may find that one or more neighboring co-ops would like to join you to share costs and provide training at a mutually convenient location. We also deliver these courses at statewide associations across the country. Visit your statewide’s website or contact your statewide training coordinator to learn what training opportunities they have available for you. To learn how to arrange NRECA training at your co-op, G&T or for statewide training opportunities, please contact Jessica Sutton, [Jessica.Sutton@nreca.coop](mailto:Jessica.Sutton@nreca.coop) or Danielle Jackson, [Danielle.Jackson@nreca.coop](mailto:Danielle.Jackson@nreca.coop).[](mailto:Brianne.McIntyre@nreca.coop) [/accordion] [accordion title="Online%20Learning%20Options"]To help you coordinate your learning plans with your full-time work, NRECA offers online self-paced, live and blended learning options for a large number of courses, conferences, meetings and certificate programs.

Among the solutions they’re pursuing is 3D-printed structures, which involves using a robotic arm and a concrete extruder to construct walls and foundations quickly and efficiently. Here’s how it works. Nozzle Framing tower Temporary wood supports Printer framing rails Electrical outlet box openings Rebar for reinforcement Concrete mix Hose Robotic arm extruder Concrete hopper Pre-polished concrete floor slab Custom CAD design Modular track system Advantages • Faster construction • More flexible design • Less expensive: 35%-50% of a standard home • More durable • More energy efficient • Less construction waste Walls • Double-skin walls with gaps for plumbing, wiring, HVAC, insulation • 150 layers per 9’ wall • 3/4-inch-thick layers Track KEVIN KEPPLE Creative Director kevin.kepple@nreca.coop 703-907-5727 13 Continuing education—a critical part of your career as a cooperative communications professional—allows you to keep up with the latest industry trends, technologies and best practices.

PAULA GIVENS Marketing Manager, Federated RE Insurance Exchange pgivens@federatedrural.com 913-541-2949 ext. 149 KEY CONTACT 25 As the only lender created and owned by the electric cooperative network, the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corp. (CFC) based in Dulles, Virginia, provides capital and industry-leading financial products to America’s 900-plus not-for-profit, consumer-controlled electric cooperatives and rural utility systems. In the late 1960s, when federal funds for rural electrification were no longer sufficient to meet demand, electric cooperatives took charge of their destiny through a self-help approach—forming an independent nonprofit financial cooperative that would make loans only to member systems. On April 10, 1969, CFC was incorporated. Governed by a 23-member board made up exclusively of electric cooperative directors and executives, CFC helps our member-owners attain their business, financial and strategic objectives through flexible, customized loan products, investment options, services, tools and training. We accomplish this through a dedicated staff and a stable, diverse base of funds built by decades of leveraging relationships in the financial community. By holding true to our enduring values of service, integrity and excellence, CFC ensures that electric cooperatives can access the capital needed to power and grow the areas they serve regardless of economic conditions.

Prompted by the work of NRECA’s blue-ribbon panel of CEOs known as the Innovative Energy Strategies Task Force (2009–2010), the Council of Rural Electric Communicators created this report to enable co-ops to better engage members and shape their expectations through strategic external communication. “Always On” defines communicators’ roles and responsibilities for our dynamic, 24/7 world. The report also is meant to help co-op CEOs and communicators evaluate their organization’s current communication readiness and provide recommendations for aligning strategic communication with operational success. For years, co-ops have worked to increase system reliability and enhance power quality to meet their members’ demand for always-on electricity. Now, co-ops must invest in the infrastructure required to fulfill the new consumer mandate: the demand for always-on communication.

Cooperatives are democratic organizations controlled by their members, who actively participate in setting policies and making decisions. Elected representatives (directors/ trustees) are elected from among the membership and are accountable to the membership. In primary cooperatives, members have equal voting rights (one member, one vote); cooperatives at other levels are organized in a democratic manner. Members contribute equitably to, and democratically control, the capital of their cooperative. At least part of that capital remains the common property of the cooperative. Members allocate surpluses for any or all of the following purposes: developing the cooperative; setting up reserves; benefiting members in proportion to their transactions with the cooperative; and supporting other activities approved by the membership. 45 Cooperatives are autonomous, self-help organizations controlled by their members. If they enter into agreements with other organizations, including governments, or raise capital from external sources, they do so on terms that ensure democratic control as well as their unique identity. Education and training for members, elected representatives (directors/ trustees), CEOs and employees help them effectively contribute to the development of their cooperatives. Communications about the nature and benefits of cooperatives, particularly with the general public and opinion leaders, helps boost cooperative understanding. By working together through local, national, regional and international structures, cooperatives improve services, bolster local economies and deal more effectively with social and community needs. Cooperatives work for the sustainable development of their communities through policies supported by the membership. 46 Podcasts • “Along Those Lines”—NRECA • “Coaching for Leaders”—Dave Stachowiak • “Confident Communications”—Molly McPherson • “Revisionist History”—Malcolm Gladwell “The Red Thread”—Tamsen Webster Books/Magazines • “Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us” by Daniel H.
