The Iowa Educators Consortium (IEC) offers selected Microsoft software titles for purchase by Iowa AEA staff, K-12 faculty, staff and students at substantial discounts of over 75 percent off retail prices. In order to be eligible to purchase the discounted software you must register and provide proof of enrollment or employment in a K-12 school or AEA within the state of Iowa.
The registration process uses e-mail domains to establish affiliation with an AEA or school. If a staff member registers with an agency-provided e-mail address, they are automatically verified. Once proof of employment has been established, orders can be placed online using a credit card. Orders will be shipped directly to the purchaser.
For additional information and instructions, go to the IEC website which is listed in the Recommend Links are of this blog. Click on the “Teacher and Student Buys” link found on the left side of the page. Choose Microsoft from the pop-up menu. To register, click on the sign-in link found in the upper right corner of the page and follow directions found in the “not registered” section to create an account.
