for NSW High School Students
The enterprise agreement with Adobe allows NSW high school students to install Adobe software for free on personally owned devices. This gives high school students access to Adobe Creative Cloud, Spark and more.
Access to Adobe software by students, is provided through single-sign on via the DoE Student Portal. Home Internet access is required. The video below explains how Adobe Creative Cloud applications can be accessed by NSW DoE staff and students, both on personally owned Windows and Mac devices.
The range of Adobe software has differing device requirements. The hardware specifications of the device will determine its capacity to run each of the titles on offer. Some titles have minimum processor and RAM requirements. The following lists show what can be installed on DoE and personal devices.

Need help?
The NSW Department of Education is unable to offer technical assistance to students in how to use Adobe Creative Cloud products. Your school teachers may be able to assist depending on your questions. If you are having user account issues and have followed the instructions in the video and are unable to sign into your DoE Adobe account, please report this to your teacher and ask if they could log a service desk call with EDConnect on your behalf.
