Greetings everyone, Adobe is offering 2 years free of their creative cloud service via their partnership with National Geographic :)

We have partnered with Adobe, a champion for creativity and the power of storytelling. As part of this partnership, Adobe is providing all course participants and their students complimentary access to its Creative Cloud collection of apps and services – the same tools many National Geographic storytellers use to create their work.

To access this opportunity, continue to PRIVO, who will help you create a secure Adobe membership.

Instructions:

  1. Go to the linked page and go down to the "PRIVO" Blue Button and click through.
  2. Go through the prompts and sign up using your details and select the appropriate level of education. For those that have studied before, this can be "Higher Education". There is no verification on the uni/school.
  3. Sign up and verify the email, and it will redirect to Adobe to have access to creative cloud :)

Note, the Adobe access is through a Privo email and not a personal email.

Note, this offer is as part of a professional development training also, they may remove the license at any point so it could be worth doing some courses just in case.

Complimentary access to Adobe Creative Cloud though the Adobe Creative Cloud for Education Offer is subject to active participation in the National Geographic Storytelling For Impact Program. Adobe reserves the right to cancel the License granted through this offer at any time should you become inactive in the Program or at the end of 24 months, whichever is sooner.

From the Signup Email:

NOTE: Your new account may take up to 5 minutes, from the time you completed registration, to be provisioned. Please give your account enough time to properly provision before attempting to login.

As always, enjoy!

        It's an error inside the creative cloud app.

  • easternculture on 25/10/2020 - 23:13

    If your getting upstream connect error, use firefox

    Its a problem with chrome browser

    Just finished my signup with no issues

    I was getting timeouts on two Windows browsers when verifying the email, however when I clicked the verification link from the email using my phone, it went straight through and worked. Worth a shot if the same is happening to you.

    • iNeed2Pee on 25/10/2020 - 23:20

      I can't get any further then that though.

    Thanks OP…. However, I am a bit cynical whether Adobe will honour this in the long run.

    • LauWong on 26/10/2020 - 00:54

        Got it working.

        Log into Privo account (was always broken until I checked today).

        Edit verification - used PayPal.

        Logged into Creative Cloud.

        One thing I noticed is that I used my personal email address that I used for registration, not any ngs.privo stuff.

        Its expired now but it was NRMA 3rd party insurance for motor vehicles with unlimited drivers and no age restrictions. Slapped my entire family and my gf on the list and it cost $100 for a year

        • JudasX on 26/10/2020 - 12:43

          WOW!

  • Lmnop on 26/10/2020 - 00:54

    It's worked for me now, I had to wait a couple of hours. Once you sign up and confirm, you'll get an email which will open up the web version of adobe creative cloud. Take the email address which was created for that account (click top right account icon) and paste it into the adobe creative cloud app on your device to access the portal page for logging in on the app. Then use the sign in details for the privo account.

  • Trumble on 26/10/2020 - 00:57

    Just got this to work after about 30 min of trying and re-trying the "Verify My Account" link in the first email from PRIVO. Got the second email from PRIVO about 10 min later, followed the link "Get started with Adobe Creative Cloud" and Bob's your Uncle, I can use all the Creative Cloud apps. Was a Lightroom user anyway, now downloading Photoshop.

  • Koipanda on 26/10/2020 - 01:40

    For anyone having trouble clicking on the link after verification to find your login details, it is just :
    (Your Username) @ngs.privo.com
    Password is the one you signed up.

    After that just login to creative cloud with that.

    • dcaddy on 26/10/2020 - 02:43

      Thanks for stepping out this part of the process.. this is what I needed to make it work.. amazing deal.. thanks so much… i have used the free 2 month option when you cancel an active subscription to give this a go and see if it works…

    Remember, VIC and NSW students and teachers can already access most Adobe apps for free without signing up for this.

    • snvl on 26/10/2020 - 07:09

      Lightroom mobile isn’t included tho

    • piemaniac on 26/10/2020 - 07:51

      This is only for secondary students though isn't it?

        No, NSW primary schools too

        • piemaniac on 26/10/2020 - 10:41

          I'm in Vic. I think it's only for secondary down here.

    • gila24 on 26/10/2020 - 10:39

      Yes, if you're in the public system in Vic, you have the access to AI, PS and PR on your BYOD, but it's not the creative cloud whole package.

  • Freezies on 26/10/2020 - 03:20

    Was going to comment earlier, but decided to wait a few hours to see how it went.

    It was hit and miss signing up but it eventually seemed to go through okay but I was unable to log in and never got a follow up email. I tried opening the site a few hours alter and I was automatically logged in. When trying to install things it would come up with the occasional error and say "denied" but it's all good now as it seems to have sorted itself out on it's own.

    I really wasn't expecting full access to all of these programs and apps. I was literally trialling some of these apps on my tablet last month and now I have full access to them aswell for free. Cheers for this.

  • razorite on 26/10/2020 - 04:35

    back up I think

    • razorite on 26/10/2020 - 04:36

    So how does Adobe track whether you've been active or not in the program..?

  • iNeed2Pee on 26/10/2020 - 11:44

    Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know if you come across this issue.

    When loading into the creative cloud or even adobe, if it gives you "an error as occured" just get out of the app, then go back in maybe 5 or 10 minutes later and it will have you logged in.

  • dammit on 26/10/2020 - 12:37

    I had half signed up…I got through the Privo step but then never rec'd a confirmation email, was able to write a username, password and my email but that was it.

    Now if I login with Privo it says Hmmm, Something doesn't seem right. Our big dog is on it. Please check back soon. If you continue to experience issues, please contact [email protected]

    Anyone else have this issue?

    • [Deactivated] on 26/10/2020 - 12:49

      Yup got the same issue. Sub'd all my details, got to the end of the registration form with 'Confirmation email sent to (email address)' and haven't received the email since. Even after multiple refreshes of the page and clicked resend confirmation, and still nothing.

      Trying to login gives me the same message as you described.

  • Krayzii on 26/10/2020 - 13:27

    Still get this:

    Access Denied

    You do not have access to this service.
