Software: Microsoft Select Scheme
The Microsoft Select volume-licensing program offers the Centre for Education &
Finance Management's Subscribing Schools volume discounts on all Microsoft
product licenses. By taking advantage of the agreement your school can benefit
from the highest level of discount available from Microsoft.
How the Select program works
Once you confirm your participation in the Select program, your price level is
fixed for Microsoft software acquisitions over the two-year agreement term. The
Education price levels will apply to all of your Select software acquisitions
including licenses, disks and manuals.
It is important to remember that you are only allowed to make one copy per
license, whatever the Microsoft product. Please note that Microsoft hardware
products are also available through the Select program.
License Types
Select has a variety of license types available, depending on your requirements.
- New Licenses. These simply enable you to
obtain usage rights for Microsoft software products.
- Version Upgrades. These allow you to use the
latest software available by upgrading your Microsoft product license to the
most recent version.
- Competitive Upgrades. These make it easy to
move to the industry's leading software products.
- Upgrade Advantage. Not only can you use the
latest software available when you enrol a prior version in Upgrade Advantage,
but you are also entitled to any major or minor upgrades Microsoft releases
during the remainder of your agreement.
Upgrade Advantage
Adding Upgrade Advantage to your product license provides upgrade rights for the
covered products for the remainder of the Select agreement term.
