THE
IET KNOWLEDGE NETWORK (KN) – integrated knowledge sharing
Following
extensive consultations with members of our 2 founding Institutions, a new
concept was born: the IET Knowledge Network. It works in a number of dimensions
a) near to where you live or work
b) by technical specialism
c) to meet career stage requirements.
Member
groups operating in these different spheres frequently interact and work
together for mutual benefit.
Become an
active member and take advantage of the many knowledge sharing opportunities
available to you throughout the year.
IET
Local Networks (LN) and Regional Networks (RN) – near to where you live or work
Events
and activities in this brochure have been organised largely by member volunteers
from the former IEE Branches and IIE Regions, who are now working together in
the IET Local Networks and Regional Networks that replace the former member
groupings. Local Networks are the primary operating units, but for larger scale
events, the Regional Network (guided and funded by sponsoring LNs) co-ordinates
and organises. Local Networks and Regional Networks also seek to work
co-operatively with other IET Networks.

IET
Technical & Professional Networks (TPNs) – offering specialist technical
insights
TPNs
provide access to specialist technical knowledge, replacing the IEE Professional
Networks and IIE Special Interest Groups. They offer a wide range of
conferences, seminars and events on a varying scale. As part of the new
Knowledge Network they will increasingly explore synergies across broad
technical sectors and with the LNs and RNs.

IET
Career Stage Networks (CSNs) – supporting members at key stages
Career
Stage Networks for our younger and retired members recognise that knowledge
needs differ at the start of a career and in retirement. However, events they
organise will be open to all. Again, the intention is to explore synergies with
the other IET Networks, co-hosting events and working together in mutual
reinforcement.

The opportunities are many and you are encouraged to participate as fully as you
wish across the entire range of the IET Knowledge Network.
