KET ED, known as the Education Channel, was a digital television programming service operated by PBS member network Kentucky Educational Television. The service provided programming from the Annenberg/CPB project, along with encore presentations of some PBS programming, and much of KET's locally produced in-house instructional television (ITV) productions.

The service originated from KET's studios at the O. Leonard Press Telecommunications Center, at 600 Cooper Drive in Lexington, Kentucky.
