Mission Statement

JISC infoNet aims to be the UK's leading advisory service for managers in the post-compulsory education sector promoting the effective strategic planning, implementation and management of information and learning technology.

The Strategic Aims of the service are:

  • To synthesise and disseminate information about new developments and their strategic implications, particularly the outcomes of JISC Innovation programmes;
  • To provide an authoritative source of good practice models and guidance based upon the synthesis of proven experience within the sector;
  • To help institutions embed good practice and build capacity in the sector through the provision of high quality targeted staff development;
  • To support enhancement of learning providers' core activities through use of technology by encouraging the sharing of knowledge, expertise and experience with an emphasis on addressing human and organisational barriers.

We do this by developing a portfolio of resources, by partnership with other providers and by listening to others to inform the development of the JISC infoNet service and the planning of future JISC development work.


The service is based in Newcastle, hosted by Northumbria University. A core service team work with a range of experts to deliver resources to the sector in line with the service remit and mission.
