Founded in 1945, the SCTE (Society for Broadband Professionals) is a non-profit making organisation whose aim is to raise the standard of broadband engineering in the telecommunications industry. The Society particularly concerns itself with the training and career advancement of technical professionals in this field. As a Learned Society, SCTE is able to provide broadband industry accreditation and certification for its members, giving them professional standing within the industry.
Dr Roger Blakeway PhD, CEng FIEE, FSCTE, President of the SCTE, has been honoured with inclusion in The Euro 50 in 2011.
