Abstract	The Transmission and Distribution (T&D) industry is facing the greatest set challenges in a generation. The impending retirement of the post War “Baby Boomers”, together with major increases in demand for investment in network infrastructure, covering both the renovation and re-enforcement of networks constructed in the 1960s and 1970s, plus the huge demand growth in developing nations, is being faced by a decline in engineering students ready to grasp the challenge. CIGRE — the “Conseil International des Grands Réseaux Electriques” — set out to reposition itself in order to better serve the needs of new T&D engineers. Quite simply, CIGRE acknowledged the need to change or risk declining membership. The authors present case material from the first 12 months of CIGRE UK's highly successful “Next Generation Network” (NGN) group and how Industry, Academia and Government have recognized the need to balance formal training with specific industry-wide support programs.
