NWMET is a consortium of higher education professionals. With membership that has expertise in software, hardware, A/V, and instructional design, NWMET is an easy way to stay ahead of the curve while staying close to home. NWMET began officially in 1978, making it one of the oldest support groups for ed-tech professionals in the world.

Our annual conference is an opportunity to interface with industry professionals and peers in higher education, where members can present their experiences and network with professionals who share similar problems and solutions as themselves.

Our objectives are to develop an identity among professionals managing instructional technology, media services, faculty and instructional development, media production, and other educational technology services in higher education institutions, and to improve the process of managing faculty and instructional support programs.
