What is e-academy?

UNF has contracted e-academy to provide licensed Microsoft software to UNF faculty and staff for home use - at very little cost.

e-academy provides solutions that facilitate the distribution of software for educational institutions.

How does it work?

UNF has an agreement with Microsoft's Work-at-Home program that allows faculty and staff to purchase select software titles. A UNF faculty/staff member orders the software online through e-academy using their credit card. The faculty/staff member provides their home address for delivery. e-academy mails the software CD to the faculty/staff member who installs the software on his or her home computer.

What is the cost?

Faculty and staff pay only a small unit fee and shipping. The unit fee averages about $15.00 and then shipping ($8 to $12) is added to total.

What software is available?

Available Now:
Microsoft Office 2007
