Procurement Exchange: UC Access to Software for Students

Join us on Friday, September 26 at 10AM for a sneak peek into UC’s new Access to Software for Students initiative – a software distribution approach designed to deliver high-power tools to students at prices that make success more accessible. You’ll hear how the Adobe pilot is shaping a new, systemwide approach to supplier partnerships, software rollout plans, and the student purchasing experience.
