It is designed to lower utility costs for Illinois school districts and community colleges to make more funds available for technology, staff development and other educational goals. The IEC is governed by a Board consisting of three representatives from each sponsoring association and includes each association's executive director.

The IEC became operational on October 1, 1999, providing electricity to the Commonwealth Edison, Illinois Power and Ameren Territories. The Board of Directors selected Ameren Energy Marketing from Peoria, IL as the Program Administrator. They provide individual analysis for interested school districts and provide a consolidated bill for participating members. Latham and Associates performed a feasibility study for a Natural Gas Program for the IEC. The IEC Board reviewed the findings and on March 1, 2002, the IEC began its brand new Natural Gas Program. The Board received seven proposals for Program Administrator and Supplier to the IEC. A subcommittee of three, interviewed four candidates and selected Peoples Energy Services (PES) of Chicago as Program Administrator and Supplier.

The mission of the California Part-Time Faculty Association (CPFA) is to create the opportunity for community college students to have equal access to quality education by promoting professional equity for all faculty. As educators, we understand that only with faculty who share equally in the responsibilities and rewards of the profession can such opportunity for academic success and education be afforded students in the California Community College system. Students, therefore, must be provided with faculty, whether employed full-time or part-time, who undergo the same rigorous hiring, evaluation, and promotional processes; who are compensated for preparing lesson plans, grading assignments, and advising students; who are compensated for participating in departmental meetings and serving on professional committees, including the shared governance process; who are provided with the peace of mind that health and retirement benefits provide; who are provided with the protection of due process and academic freedom; and who are able to invest in their professional future through a system for building tenure or seniority, including, in the case of part-time faculty, preference for full-time hiring. In this regard, CPFA is dedicated to achieving our mission by: - encouraging practices and policies that ensure our faculty is as diverse as the students we serve; - educating the public, as well as students, faculty, administrators and legislators, about part-time faculty concerns and issues; - serving as a coalition and resource base for all individuals and organizations interested in promoting professional equity; - working to complement, enhance and reinvigorate the work that is already being done in faculty organizations, statewide and nationally, who share our mission; - creating alliances with other faculty, academic, labor, or social organizations, statewide or nationally, who share our goals; - seeking legislative means to achieve our goals.
