DreamSpark is open to teachers

Friends! We are pleased to announce that the DreamSpark program is now becoming available to teachers in Russian schools and universities. The official announcement can be found in the MS blog for the press .



Let me remind you that within the framework of the DreamSpark program, students, graduate students and schoolchildren over 12 years old, and now also teachers, can get free access to MS tools for non-commercial use (study, science, etc.).

The toolbox is constantly updated with new products and today includes:

• development and design tools , such as Visual Studio 2010, Robotics Developer Studio 2008 R3 and Expression Studio 4,
• server products (Windows Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2008 R2),
• many other interesting programs for education (for example, Kodu Game Lab and Small Basic).

Also, program participants have the opportunity to pass the Microsoft certification exam free of charge (until June 30 or until the vouchers run out), listen to the PluralSight training courses and place WP7 apps in the Marketplace for free (including paid ones).
