Adobe Creative Cloud

Programs such as InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat Professional and more.

For students, school based staff now apply via EDConnect for licences for your students who want to use the Adobe Creative Cloud products as part of their subject offerings. Each student will need their DoE username captured for the provisioning team to assign a licence to each user. Due to limited licence numbers, we ask that schools only apply for students who will be actively utilising the licence as part of their study. See Adobe for Education for more info.

General Software

All students should have up-to-date versions of the following software installed on their device:

  • Google Chrome web browser
  • Windows Defender or similar protection
  • specialist software as indicated by teachers
