Network of Educational Television (NETV) (Chinese: 教育電視廣播電台) was the first television station in Taiwan, operating under the National Education Archives of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of China. It was also a member of the Taiwan Public Radio and Television Group and is described as a predecessor of the China Television Corporation (CTV).

Due to its experimental nature and limited broadcast range, NETV is not typically cited as Taiwan's first television station. However, it is regarded as the island's first non-commercial educational broadcaster. NETV was later succeeded by the CTS Main Channel.
