Scope - Currently the District subscribes to Microsoft’s subscription based model for providing licensing to all District devices. This service provides us with the Client Access Licensing (CALs) for the most current versions of Microsoft Windows, Office as well as server access. Normally, these licenses are purchased as a per device unit price, which would be upwards of $500,000.00, if the District were to purchase the individual licenses, particularly for Microsoft Office. This model is based on a per user, students are no cost, unit price and is substantially lower than the per device model. Throughout the subscription, the District will have access and the ability to install the most current operating systems and versions of Microsoft Office. By enrolling in the subscription model, we will keep current with all next generation releases of Microsoft Office, at no additional cost, as long as we maintain our subscription. This renewal will cover the District for the 2019-2020 school year and will be up for renewal again June 30, 2020. Additionally, the cost of this subscription is eligible for reimbursement at 100% as CAI Software.
