MICROSOFT AZURE DEV TOOLS FOR TEACHING
We are pleased to provide a Microsoft Azure Dev Tools for Teaching (also known as Azure Education Hub, or AEH) account for all of our current students. AEH makes hundreds of software titles available to students at no cost, including Windows clients, Windows servers, and development platforms. The software is full-versioned, non-restricted, and perpetually licensed (does not ‘time out’). Please note, however, that software acquired through AEH cannot be used for commercial purposes – only personal/academic use. We encourage our students to visit Azure Education Hub and see what’s available!
