Check out what's included and read the FAQ.

Microsoft has recently licensed e-academy's ELMS system a turnkey solution to automate the distribution and tracking of software available under the MSDNAA Program. The ELMS system provides a storefront that allows members to checkout, reserve, and download MSDNAA software. We are currently working to make all MSDNAA software available on the ELMS website. To access the website faculty and students need to log in here.

All students and faculty should already have an account. Your user name is your Oasis email address, and your password should have been emailed to that address. If you did not receive it, go to the reminder, and have your password emailed to your Oasis email account.

This account will allow students to logon to ELMS and purchase Microsoft software for $0. One the software has been purchased the emls system will email the student the required software key.
All of the CD/DVD images available on the storefront are available on the IAM network on a local server called IAMLIBRARY. Once you have obtained your software key please bring a CD or DVD to IAM South and burn an image of the software.
