The CARNET Users Conference – CUC is an annual gathering of CARNET users and associates, including primary and high school teachers, faculty professors, CARNET system engineers and coordinators, members of the scientific research community, as well as IT professionals and business people from areas of information and communication technology (ICT).
It represents a platform for the exchange of information, knowledge and experience and the development of cooperation between people who have access to ICT, primarily the Internet, and its associated advanced forms of use, primarily in education, using modern pedagogical approaches.
The conference has been continuously organized since 1999 and over the years has become an important event from the modest beginnings as today it brings together more than 1,000 participants from all areas of ICT.
It is traditionally held under the auspices of the Ministry of Science and Education, who support the activities of the Croatian Academic and Research Network – CARNET in promoting the application of information and communication technologies in the Croatian society.
