Professional Associate Affiliation With EAP
If you work in the energy industry in the Philadelphia region, strong relationships matter. Contractors, inspectors, facility managers, and decision makers all shape how projects move forward. Becoming a Professional Associate of the Electrical Association of Philadelphia (EAP) helps you stay close to that ecosystem.
This affiliation is for individuals, not companies. It does not enroll your employer as an EAP member or include voting rights. Instead, it connects you personally to the same trusted network that electrical, HVAC, generator, and energy contractors rely on for education, insight, and relationships.
Professional Associates include educators, engineers, facility managers, regional sales professionals, and compliance experts who want visibility, credibility, and real awareness of what contractors are dealing with in the field.

What Professional Associate Affiliation Means
EAP contractor membership is company-wide. Firms join so their entire staff can access training, marketing exposure, wellness programs, and business support.
Professional Associate affiliation is different.You join as an individual to stay connected to the EAP community without enrolling your company.
As a Professional Associate, you:
- Participate in EAP events and education
- Gain visibility within the contractor community
- Stay informed on local codes, programs, and industry shifts
You do not receive company membership benefits, contractor listings, or voting rights. You do gain access to the conversations and relationships that shape the Philadelphia electrical and energy market.
