HOWTO Add User

  1. The new user needs to create an account in TechSoup
  2. Give them i3Detroit's IRS EIN and TechSoup Association Code
  3. Make sure the new user has appropriate permissions

HOWTO Microsoft

Microsoft software, such as Windows and Office, has to be obtained through Microsoft.

(Jamie Bliss is still working on making this happen.)

HOWTO Adobe

Adobe software, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, has to be obtained through Adobe.

The Adobe account is accounts [at] i3detroit.org, and is currently in good standing, so Jamie Bliss hasn't had to figure it out yet.
