This summer, working through the Maryland Education Enterprise Consortium (MEEC), UMBC established a faculty/staff site license with Adobe for their new Creative Cloud offering (see detailed list of software below). This allows the use of the Adobe products on all institutional computers and includes a work-at-home provision for faculty and staff.
One challenge we had is that the contract could not go into effect till August 25th. As a result, we worked closely with Adobe to prioritize getting the software ready for the start of classes in UMBC instructional labs. The software is now available to download to faculty and staff desktops on the myUMBC software downloads page. Note: The work-at-home provision requires people to go through a 3rd party company and Adobe’s online portal. We are working with Adobe to get this up and running and will update our FAQs with information.
DoIT has updated both myUMBC and the software downloads page.
