A standard Academic CLP Agreement requires sites to purchase at least 5,000 'points' of products to join and 100,000 points to achieve the highest level of discount – Tier 3. The Adobe Master CLP Agreement requires no minimum purchase to join and all sites will enjoy the Tier 3, top level of discount regardless of their individual spend.
The Adobe Master CLP Agreement runs until 10 May 2025 and sites may join at any time – you do not have to wait for your existing CLP Agreement to end.
Licence pricing will depend on your choice of reseller and the product(s) you wish to order.
