Why are membership costs so high?
Technologies and services offered through the Microsoft Academy program are worth over eight times the cost of the program, allowing members to deliver quality training and services at a level unavailable through commercial training providers. Members realize a return on their investment in academic discounts for courseware, certification exams, and lab licensing, as well as through TechNet Plus, and the faculty training benefits. The Microsoft IT Academy Program is a cost recovery program for Microsoft & not a revenue producing program.
