Join a network of PhD holders and doctoral candidates

Established and managed by APEC as part of its public service mandate, this network for PhD graduates and doctoral candidates aims to serve as a space for discussion, knowledge-sharing, and inspiration

Objectives of this network

  1. Building a dynamic and inclusive community on a national scale: Bring together PhDs, doctoral students and stakeholders from all backgrounds in an open space based on mutual support, collaboration and the promotion of academic and professional paths.
  2. Facilitating the dissemination and sharing of essential information: Sharing initiatives, strategic information, and resources provided by institutions and organizations involved in promoting doctoral studies. Our goal is to enable each member to access initiatives and opportunities that meet their specific needs.
  3. Connecting members and fostering meaningful exchanges: Promoting networking among PhD graduates, doctoral students, companies, academic institutions, government agencies, public authorities and other key stakeholders. These interactions will help build synergies, create opportunities, and strengthen interdisciplinary collaborations.
  4. Giving visibility to the PhD ecosystem: Providing a communication space where members can share their projects, achievements, news, and needs. This platform will highlight regional and national initiatives, while strengthening recognition of PhDs' contributions to society.
  5. Promoting Partners and Their Initiatives: Increasing the visibility of academic institutions, businesses, associations, and partner organizations within our network. We are committed to promoting the diversity and richness of the stakeholders involved in developing the skills of PhDs.
  6. Offer a wide variety of events to strengthen skills and broaden horizons: Design and organize rich and relevant exchange opportunities:
  • Interactive webinars on a variety of topics,
  • Practical workshops to develop soft skills and technical skills,
  • Recruitment forums to connect talent with employers,
  • Presentations by recognized experts to address crucial issues,
  • Friendly gatherings and networking opportunities to strengthen links between community members.

7. Promoting employability and supporting the professional integration of PhDs: With the support of Apec and other partners, targeted resources will be shared with community members such as:

  • Information and job fairs,
  • Workshops to prepare for interviews, build a career plan, or broaden career prospects.
  • Webinars on labor market trends and tools for exploring new career opportunities,
  • National and regional events designed to help recent graduates find fulfilling and impactful careers.
