New Member Benefit from National Corporate Partner—Paragon Micro! wmsalliance
A ground-breaking alliance has been formed between the Association of Christian Schools International and Microsoft to offer extended technology benefits and cost saving Microsoft software access and licensing.
This agreement—the Microsoft Education Alliance Agreement (MEAA) and the national School Agreement—provides significant cost savings in technology for our member schools. The ACSI MEAA is the first national MEAA formed with Microsoft in the United States! This agreement provides a number of great benefits and support—the result of dialogue Microsoft held with ACSI member schools this past fall. A sample of a U.S. member school's MEAA benefits include:
- Live@edu Free email for students (staff may also participate) hosted by Microsoft.
- IT Academy Reduced pricing on Essential and Advanced IT Academy. IT Academy provides technical training and certifications for students and staff.
- Free Tools for Teaching and Learning—Access a host of great tools for your classroom including:
Learning Essentials, Office Live Workspace, PhotoSynth, and more.
- The Innovative Teachers Network A free community site for teachers to share, collaborate, and store files. Connect with teachers in the U.S. or around the world.
In addition, ACSI has secured the first national School Agreement for our members to purchase Microsoft software via Microsoft Authorized Educational Reseller and ACSI’s newest National Corporate Partner—Paragon Micro. This agreement gives member schools a significant price reduction and a host of valuable benefits, while helping to establish a predictable yearly software budget allocation to incorporate into the annual school operating budget.
Member schools that place orders, based on this agreement, may be eligible to receive a discount. Those purchasing Microsoft Office will also receive a free copy of Student 2009 (including Encarta Premium) for each Office license purchased.
