Chat to a Mentor

Our Mentoring service is perfectly placed to match you with someone who’ll help you make the most of your career opportunities; it’s always a plus to have invaluable insight from someone who’s been through the Professional Registration process before.

We’re upgrading our events registration to make it quicker and easier for you to register for an event or course.

From Wednesday, 27 May, 4pm to Thursday, 28 May, 10am, our registration system will be temporarily unavailable while we upgrade our systems. For any urgent enquiries during this time, please email events@theiet.org and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. 

Thank you for your patience.
