One of the main objectives of the EKFI project (www.ekfi-project.com) is to design and build a digital (internet) platform on which teaching materials and research reports can be found for the printmedia sector. This can relate to topics such as communication, print and digital media or investigations about developments in the industry.
With the help of this questionnaire we want to collect relevant information about the need for specific (teaching) material about these topics and the current state of affairs.
