From 1968 to 1969 the EPRC focused on: staff development, definition of a specific research program, and development of methods to deal with educational policy issues in the context of longrange futures. The research program of the center is organized around educational futures and policy planning. Specific methods include Delphi techniques, goal analysis, cross-impact matrix, and other forecasting methods. Appendixes present some relevant materials from the center.
