IKORCC is First to Offer New Certification
/en News /por Lacey NixLocal 413 member Jeremy Feltz was the first to earn his DSI certification.
Several IKORCC training centers are now offering Door Safety Inspection Certification. Obtaining the Door Safety Inspection (DSI) Certification gives our members the ability to inspect doors inside healthcare or educational facilities to ensure they are compliant with the National Fire Protection Act. This new certification also helps the IKORCC break into a new market and secure additional work in facilities that require Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) trained carpenters.
The IKORCC is the first council in the United Brotherhood of Carpenters to offer this DSI Certification. Since the creation of the class and the first members obtaining their credentials, we’ve made major progress.

A Message from IKORCC EST Todd Pancake
/en News /por IKORCCEST Todd Pancake walks in the Terre Haute Labor Day Parade with his family and Local 133.
Brothers and Sisters,
On April 1st, 2019, I was appointed to fill the Executive Secretary Treasurer’s position vacated by then EST Mark McGriff with his appointment as the Midwestern District Vice President. I’ve been a proud member of the UBC and Carpenters Local #133 for 39 years. I completed my apprenticeship in 1984 and worked with general contractors including Circle B & Terstep. I also had a few pile driving opportunities. Building layout and concrete were definitely my favorite areas.
In 1991, I became a training instructor and worked for 15 years before I was hired as the Director of Education for the IN/KY Training Trust. After 12 years, I went to work for then EST McGriff as his Chief-of-Staff. In July 2019, IKORCC delegates elected me to the EST position for a four-year term. It’s an honor and privilege to serve as your new EST.
