The purpose of this paper is to report on two consecutive regional learning networks operating over a two‐year period. The reality of setting up and operating learning networks and the learning emanating from them for network participants and those facilitating the process is captured through case study. The research methodology incorporates features of action research and collaborative inquiry. The experience gained from the set up and operation of the learning networks is captured and shared. The study concludes by offering guidelines for developing and maintaining learning networks. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
