While you are a student at LSBU, you can download selected fully licenced software to your own device. Some of this software is a course requirement.  

Please note: these licences do not cover devices belonging to friends and family of LSBU students and staff, even if living at the same address.


Before you install software on your device, you may be able to access this software and more via AppsAnywhere for PC users.

Mac users can use the Virtual Desktop app to access software on their own devices.


Adobe Creative Cloud

If your course has specified that you will need access to the Adobe Creative Cloud packages, you will automatically be enrolled.

This will give you access to Adobe Creative Cloud, and you will receive an email with a link to the software and instructions on downloading it.

Please note: If you do not have access and believe you should, please contact your Course Leader. Course Leaders can request new access to a new course code by providing details to their School Director of Operations.

You can find User Guides and Tutorials at the Adobe Help Centre.
