Welcome to the Janet South West Group

This is the regional group for Janet customers in the South West of England seeking information about Janet connectivity in their region, support, services and contact information.

The advanced technology at the heart of Janet coupled with the government’s drive for shared services and efficient procurement mean that Janet’s common infrastructure can support multiple communities and deliver significant savings.

The SWERN user group meets 3 times a year and alternates the location for the meetings between Exeter and Bristol. The group has an active membership and meetings are well attended by representatives from FE, HE and other Janet connected sites in the region. The meetings usually start at 10.45am and stop at 1pm when lunch is provided. In the afternoon session which usually starts at 2pm, a presentation is normally given, either by a commercial supplier with a product of interest to the group or one of the community.
