DreamSpark Premium Program Implementation Guide

ITT Technical Institute Microsoft DreamSpark Premium Software Program (for End User Download) IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
June 2013

Section I General
1. The DreamSpark Premium Program is the official provider of Microsoft software previously distributed through the MSDNAA (Microsoft Developers Network for Academic Alliance) Program. The DreamSpark Premium program logo now replaces the MSDNAA program logo on the Web store while retaining the same functions of the former MSDNAA Program. 2. ITT/ESI is an official subscriber to the DreamSpark Premium Program and is the authorized institutional provider for the software from this program to support the delivery of the curricula offered at ITT Technical Institute that require the use of such software. 3. The use of the software supplied through the DreamSpark Premium program is subject to the user license agreement and specific procedures set forth by Microsoft and by ITT/ESI. 4. The user of this program agrees to fully comply with the End User License Agreement (EULA) that governs the use of the software obtained through the DreamSpark Premium program. A copy of the EULA is located at the DreamSpark Web Store once you select the software and click the Check Out button, where you will be required to read the policy and select either Accept or Decline in order to proceed with the download. If you select Decline, your transaction will be terminated.

5. The software from the DreamSpark Premium program is available for download by the end user at ITT Technical Institute. The term end user refers to all active students and faculty whose curricula specify the use of the software supplied through the DreamSpark Premium program. 6. Online download from DreamSparks Web store is the ONLY institutional distribution mechanism for software and associated product keys supplied through the DreamSpark Premium program. The ITT/ESI Headquarters does not ship any DreamSpark Premium software media and the corresponding license keys to the field. 7. In order to obtain the login credentials for accessing the DreamSpark Web Store, each qualified individual end user must actively maintain his/her email account ending with itt-tech.edu. Credentials for accessing DreamSpark Premium program will ONLY be sent to the email account ending with itt-tech.edu. 8. Up to two downloads are granted for the selected software per person. Only one license/activation key will be provided for the downloaded product that requires such a key. Depending on the nature of the product, some would allow activation on more than one computer. Some can be activated on only one computer. In most cases, Operating System software, such as Windows 7 and Server 2008, will allow to be installed on one computer, whereas typical application software, such as Visual Studio, could be allowed on more than one computer. 9. For products that require activation on one device, the activated instance must be retained exclusively for curriculum use. Noncompliance with this may cause the software to become unavailable for curriculum use. The end user is solely responsible for ensuring the software is to be dedicated to the curriculum use. Microsoft and ITT/ESI will NOT be responsible if the end user fails to comply with the End User Agreement.

10. Please refer to the curriculum for required software, and follow instructions provided in the curriculum for the use of the software. 11. IMPORTANT In order to ensure the required software is available for use by the course, it is imperative that the required software is downloaded prior to the course/lab session that requires the use of the software. In no circumstance is the download allowed as a class activity, as the downloading action is likely to take up the valuable lab time, and downloading a large file as a class could disturb the normal functionality of the campus network. 12. Please refer to the next section (Download Instructions) for detailed procedures on how to download the software.

Section II Download Instructions


1. IMPORTANT The only login information you are authorized to use for the download access is the information provided in the email that was sent to your email account ending with itttech.edu. This login information should only be used by you. Allowing others to download software using your credentials is considered software piracy and is illegal. 2. Access your ITT Tech Student Email Account. 3. Go to your Inbox and open the email that contains your DreamSpark Premium Login Information. 4. Click the link that is above your login information.

Section III Software Eligibility for Curricula


1. In principle, the authorized end user is eligible for any software provided through the DreamSpark program as long as the software is for use by the curriculum as defined by the DreamSpark program and EULA. 2. Microsoft Office (specifically Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint) is not part of the DreamSpark program. Other than the Microsoft Office Suite, the DreamSpark program is the source for all Microsoft software that is required in the curricula offered at ITT Technical Institute. 3. Please refer to specific courses to identify the software needed, and search on the DreamSpark Web Store to download the software accordingly. Due to specific licensing provisions, certain software (such as Windows 7) requires activation after installation. The curriculum has specific instructions regarding how to handle this requirement for the virtual machine implementation of the labs in our specific lab environment. It is important such instructions be followed strictly. Failure to do so will negatively affect the end users ability to achieve the outcomes prescribed by the curriculum.
