Discontinuation of the Book and Document Digitization, Professional Streaming, and AV Equipment Rental Services
In the first quarter of the year, we discontinued several of the services we had been offering. Firstly, at the end of January, we removed “Book and Document Digitization” from our list of services; we are now only completing projects that were already in progress. We also discontinued our “Professional Streaming” and “AV Equipment Rental” services.
Thank you for your understanding.

New Ticketing system starting in January 2026
With the start of the new year, the ticketing system—which handles all messages submitted via the online form—has undergone a major overhaul. We are now using the Redmine platform, which, compared to the previous Trac system, offers a range of features that will help us manage reported issues more efficiently. For you as a user, however, nothing significant has changed—the main change on the user side is the format of the email messages sent by the system.

We are looking for teachers to lead a sharing session that will take place during the exam period. If you have incorporated any interesting techniques, methods, or activities into your teaching, you might be the perfect candidate for our session. You’re also welcome to come just to get inspired by your colleagues’ methods.
