The IFIP TC3 Doctoral Consortium OCCE 2025 is a forum for PhD students working on topics related to education and digital and information technologies to discuss their research goals, methods and results at an early stage of their research. It aims to provide useful guidance about the completion of doctoral research and the initiation of research careers in a friendly and constructive atmosphere. The DC provides an opportunity for student participants to interact with senior researchers in the field.

The IFIP TC3 Doctoral Consortium OCCE 2025 is a free event. As an IFIP TC3 activity, participants can also take advantage of the opportunity to become a corresponding member of some of the IFIP TC3 Working Groups (WGs), which is a first step towards full membership.
