The JISC Monitoring Unit provides monitoring, reporting and record-keeping services for JISC and its sub-committees. It is based at the University of Kent and builds upon a long history going back through the Monitoring and Advisory Unit (MAU) to the Technical Advisory Unit (TAU) set up in the early 1990s.

The JISC Monitoring Unit provides a quality assurance role to JISC. It regularly collects data from the Network Infrastructure and Content services, and publishes reports on overall performance, trends and significant incidents for submission to JISC on a quarterly and annual basis. It also conducts annual surveys in order to obtain a user-centric view on the performance of services. For more information please visit the about us section of the MU web-site.

The Monitoring Unit maintains an authoritative list of JISC-funded JANET Connections
