Hello I&L Community,

This post is meant to provide information regarding the Educational Software program. 

As of May 2020 the Education Community launched a new verification process, when accessing products from the Educational Community  all members of the program will now be prompted to verify & determine eligibility to access Autodesk educational licenses. Either proof of enrollment or employment needs to be provided & uploaded.

*This does not affect educational licenses that were installed & activated before May 2020 when the verification process launched.
