TALENT, together with colleagues from across the sector, is establishing a new national network of Technology Specialists to share best practice and support learning and development opportunities for technical experts working in higher education and research.

Technology Specialists are technicians who have in-depth knowledge and technical expertise in a specialised field. They’re vital to education, research and development and play a significant role in knowledge exchange.

The new UK Technology Specialists Network (TSN) has been founded by a group of technical colleagues from higher education and research institutes across the UK to develop a national network that will enhance skills and knowledge of individuals and strengthen institutional expertise.

TSN will be hosting its inaugural conference in April 2023 at the University of Edinburgh where over 100 Technology Specialists will come together to hear sector updates and share best practice.

The event will be held over two days on 18th and 19th April 2023 at the University at Edinburgh. If you are a Technical Specialist and would like to attend this event, you can reserve your place using the link below:
