Adobe Creative Cloud
The Adobe Creative Cloud (Adobe CC) applications are available for staff members to download and install on a University desktop using an Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App.
To use and install the Adobe CC applications, you need to be licensed with the All Apps Complete Plan for staff. You can request this by contacting the IS Service Desk.
Please note: due to the recent Cyber Essentials changes, Professional Services colleagues will no longer be able to access Adobe CC from a personal device.
