Membership for organisations and institutions

Invest in the people shaping the future of engineering and technology. 

Whether you're supporting employees or students, membership helps people connect with the wider engineering and technology profession, develop new skills, build professional confidence and prepare for future opportunities. 

By funding membership, you’re investing in the long-term development of your people, helping foster a culture of continuous learning, professional growth and lifelong engagement with the profession. 

You'll also receive support from us to help your students, apprentices and employees get the most from their membership, including a dedicated account manager, membership briefings, engagement support and regular updates on opportunities, events and professional development initiatives.

Supporting inclusion in the workplace

An inclusive STEM sector doesn’t happen by chance. It’s built intentionally, by organisations willing to challenge the status quo and act on evidence. 

At WISE, part of the IET, our mission is to enable and promote the participation, contribution and success of women in the UK STEM workforce.   

Membership of WISE supports organisations to unlock opportunity for women in STEM. 

If you’re ready to make real progress towards an equitable workforce, to challenge the status quo or dismantle systemic barriers, you’ve found the right partner.
