being eligible student

[julie_elsen]

Hi,

In the past I have had the chance to get experience with both programs, 3Ds Max and Cinema 4D. Max has been my favorite and now I would like to really learn this program but I am not a student. I am just a working person who would like to do this as a hobby. So not for any professional purpose, just for myself.

I have been looking everywhere for courses I could follow to be an eligible student but in Belgium that does not seem to be an easy task, if not impossible. I can find lots of online courses and tutorials but I don't think that you will be seen as a student than. 

So, my question is if any one can help me with approved courses to combine lessons with a student license (online is not a problem) or is there another way you can legally use a free or less expansive version of the program? 

Thank you very much,

Julie

ps: I have been in touch with the site 3Dtraining.com but that is for the moment not an option.

you would need to find an online service that follows this: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/account-management/education-program/who-can-join/el...

otherwise there is not a legal way to get the free student license

Hi @julie_elsen,

Whilst not currently applicable but in the future, there is a high likelihood of the indie program going global (currently it's only in a few countries) which would allow you to get it at a cheaper price down the road.
