Shaping the future of learning

Diverse. Collaborative. Transformative.

In 2020, The OEB Global Virtual Experience was held virtually for 5 days, creating new ways to learn, be inspired, engage, share, collaborate, meet and network online.

A unique conference programme fostered exchange on the most important developments and trends that shape the future of learning in the corporate, education and public service sectors. Over 140 sessions offered delegates the chance to take part in an entire week of knowledge sharing.

OEB's 27^th edition will take place from Dec 1 — 3, 2021: save the dates!

OEB Global has grown to be Europe’s vibrant meeting of the people and organisations shaping the future of how we teach and learn through technology.

The conference provided our team members with a great opportunity to reinforce our partnerships with colleagues from all over Europe and work together on upcoming projects.

@SteveWheeler

Thank you @OEBconference and the glittering city of #Berlin for an absolutely splendid, thought provoking and enjoyable three days. #OEB19 has advanced from previous years and I can’t wait to return next year for #OEB20.

Paul Kirschner, Emeritus Professor of Educational Psychology at the OU, the Netherlands

The plenary debate was extraordinary; an academic discourse with experts about a topic that really matters. What a pleasure and an honour.

Jean Jacques Buregeya, Information Systems Officer at World Intellectual Property Organisation, Switzerland

OEB is the best place really to get all the new ideas in e-learning.

Laura Czerniewicz, University of Capetown, South Africa

This seems to be the only conference attended by pretty much all the current stakeholders across the Higher Education ecosystem: academics, non-governmental organisations, government, professionals and a wide range of companies across the student experience cycle.

Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, The Oxford Internet Institute, UK

OEB is the premier international conference to learn about learning and the cutting edge of educational tools and materials available. I could not think of a better place to be.

Sanjay Sarma, Vice President for Open Learning at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA

OEB is special because the discussions are very sensible, grounded, rich.

Mildred Ayere, University of Maseno, Kenya

I am going home with solutions from OEB!

Oliver Crouzet, Head of Pegagogy at “42”, France

Many interesting sessions, challenging debates, definitely glad to be in Berlin for OEB!

OEB is an exciting edtech conference, very well organized and hosted in a great city. It's a fine way to learn, share, and network, especially in the European setting.

Luc Steels, Vrije Universiteit Brussel Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Belgium

I think OEB is an incredible conference; it really brings together everybody working in this domain of digital education - people doing research, building tools, teachers, small companies, big companies. It's a fabulous meeting ground.
