NIBA joins ICP
Industrial Careers Pathway announced that NIBA-The Belting Association (NIBA) has become the group's fifth Alliance Partner.
NIBA joins the American Supply Association (ASA), the Industrial Supply Association’s (ISA) Educational Foundation, NAHAD–the Association for Hose and Accessories Distribution and the Power Transmission Distributors Association’s (PTDA) Foundation as a supporter of ICP.
NIBA is a global organization serving fabricators, distributors and manufacturers of belting and related products. NIBA’s board of directors voted to join ICP at their June 2014 board meeting.
“NIBA’s Programs and Services Committee thoroughly vetted ICP before recommending joining as an Alliance Partner. We believe in the direction ICP is taking, focusing its efforts on creating awareness of the field of industrial distribution among 18-34 year olds who currently are not aware of the great career opportunities within industrial distribution," said NIBA president,Tom Wujek. "We feel that by joining together with other distribution associations, we can use our partnership with ICP as a way to help our industry connect with our future workforce. We are looking forward to a long and profitable relationship.”
Alliance Partners’ support of ICP helps fund outreach efforts and provide resources available to industrial distributors, job seekers and educators and parents. Alliance Partners’ member companies also enjoy discounts on job listings on ICP’s Job Board, the only job board specifically for the field of industrial distribution, and on ICP educational materials including the landmark Elements of Industrial Distribution course available online and in print.
Through the collective support of Alliance Partners and their member companies, ICP is devoted to building awareness among the elusive 18-34 year old audience about careers available in industrial distribution.
