CONSIDERING IET MEMBERSHIP OR YOU ARE ALREADY A MEMBER

John Peckham

Once again I need you help please?

If you have not thought about being a member, or you are thing about being a member of the IET or you are an existing member of the IET what benefits would you want from the IET? Is what is on offer at the moment meeting your needs or not attractive to you.

I wear a number of IET hats and in one role I am looking at improving membership from the installation industry which is not that good in comparison to the size of the industry.

The IET do a lot of good stuff but I am convinced that it is not widely known about. For example this forum is funded and supported as part of the IETs charitable commitment. Also the free webinars we have been doing (Next one on the 5th April).

So rather than me saying I know "whats good for you" I want to hear your views?

Thanks

JP

  • If we want more installers joining the IET then we need to get more installers involved with the IET on the shop floor.

    I believe that a refocus would improve things, let us begin with a rebrand back to the Institute Of Electrical Engineering for starters, plus a distancing from something which is trying and failing to be a one-size-fits-all, namely the IET.

    I was intrigued to learn from one of the previous posts that the IET cannot comment upon aspects or content of BS7671.

    I have always been puzzled by what the structural hierarchy is and what the command flow direction is between the likes of IEC, JPLE64, BSI and the IET. Who drives it and who sets the priorities? Who is funded by who and who decides how to drive revenue generation etc?

    Basically, who is wagging whose tails?
