The Institute of Telecommunications Professionals (ITP) is a membership organisation for professionals in the telecommunications industry, based in the United Kingdom.

The Institute was originally founded in 1906. It is now a registered company with Companies House in the United Kingdom, incorporated in 2002. Brendan O' Mahony has been the chief executive of the ITP.

Lucy Woods presided over ITP for fifteen years, until 2018, when the organization named Kevin Paige chairman for five years.

In 2019, the ITP established a new partnership with the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) with the aim of developing a joint professional registration scheme to elevate professional standards throughout the telecommunications industry.

In 2021, the ITP assisted a UK fibre network Vorboss in establishing its training academy. In 2023, the ITP appointed Tim Creswick, the CEO of Vorboss, as the new chair of its board of directors.

The institute has an associated journal, the Journal of the Institute of Telecommunications Professionals, established in 2007 and published quarterly.
