Frequently asked questions

How is Adobe Express for K-12 Education different from the commercial version of Adobe Express?

  • Schools and districts retain control over student accounts and can exercise admin rights over those accounts.
  • Easier login: Ability to set up single sign-on so students can easily log in with their existing school ID.
  • Premium creative assets and student-friendly Adobe Stock images are included, along with safe search for image results that are age-appropriate for K-12 students.
  • There are no paywalls, ads, or marketing popups.

Spark has been updated to Adobe Express, with even more great features.

What’s the difference between Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Express?

Adobe Creative Cloud includes 20+ industry leading apps, such as Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator and requires a purchased subscription for access. To purchase Adobe Creative Cloud for your institution at an educational discount, visit this page.

Does my K-12 district need an Adobe Creative Cloud license to use Adobe Express in the classroom?
