Independent Higher Education is a representative body for some higher education institutions in the United Kingdom. It represents 'independent' providers of higher education, generally those that are non-university, international, or for-profit institutions. It is one of the sector bodies consulted by the UK Government on issues such as free speech at universities and the admission of students during the Covid pandemic. The chief executive of Independent Higher Education is a member of the Department for Business and Trade's Education Sector Advisory Group.

IHE is governed by a board of directors. The Chair of IHE is James Pitman.
