Congratulations to Noble REMC Director George Bennett, pictured at right, who recently received the Board Leadership Certificate (BLC) from the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA).

An ever-changing business environment has imposed new demands on electric cooperative directors, requiring increased knowledge of changes in the electric utility business, new governance skills and a solid knowledge of the cooperative principles and business model. 

Noble REMC is committed to working with our statewide and national organizations to sharpen this body of knowledge for the benefit of our members.

This includes NRECA’s Board Leadership Certificate which recognizes individuals who continue their professional development after becoming a Credentialed Cooperative Director. Directors who have attained the BLC have completed 10 credits in advanced, issues-oriented courses, including topics such as risk management, power supply, parliamentary procedure, technology and policy development.

We give our thanks to George for going above and beyond in his leadership of Noble REMC and our members!
