Interested in becoming an Adobe Creative Campus?
Get in touchAdobe Creative Campus institutions have made a commitment to digital literacy and have empowered students in all disciplines with the opportunity to learn essential digital skills to succeed in the classroom and beyond. They offer their students full access to Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Express to learn to communicate more effectively, build their personal brands, and prepare for the challenges of an increasingly digital world. They also collaborate with other Adobe Creative Campus institutions to share best practices in driving innovation and student success.
Your Adobe Creative Campus designation shows prospective students and peer intitutions that you are committed to the success of your students inside and outside the classroom. By giving students equitable access to creativity and productivity tools, you are ensuring everyone on your campus has an opportunity to share their ideas with the world. This commitment to student outcomes sets your intitution apart, and the Adobe Creative Campus program recognizes that distinction.
As an Adobe Creative Campus, you will get access to exclusive branded marketing materials for you to use in your internal promotion of Adobe access. Customizable posters, web banners, and email templates — created by the Adobe design team — make it easy to spread the word on campus, and for everyone to start learning and creating. Students in eligible regions are invited to join the Adobe Student Ambassador network, a select group of students supporting their peers in Adobe Creative Campus institutions.
The Adobe Creative Skills series offers self-paced courses on essential skills, like how to deliver stunning presentations and how to create with generative AI tools. Students complete a 1-2 hour course, with exercises using Adobe tools, and can earn an official Adobe badge for each skill. These Credly badges can be shared on LinkedIn and in resumes to help students stand out to potential employers. Successful institutions have assigned these courses to students in coursework, and also outside of standard curricula to prepare students with career-ready skills.
Available exclusively to Adobe Creative Campus program institutions, this dynamic, hands-on program offers extensive live support and mentoring to faculty and instructional designers. Participants can select from an array of workshops covering assignment prompts and lesson plans that use Adobe to foster digital literacy, promote in-demand workplace skills, and improve student engagement. At the end of each workshop, participants will have their own digital teaching portfolios to inspire others on campus — and they can also receive Adobe Creative Campus Faculty Fellow certifications.
Administrators, academic leaders, and faculty are invited to participate in special events with Adobe, other Adobe Creative Campus institutions, and the broader higher education community, to share best practices with other leaders investing in student success. In our ongoing Adobe Creative Campus Café webinars, Adobe Creative Campus community members share their perspectives and learnings on digital literacy with the broader higher education community. Your Adobe Creative Campus designation also means your students and faculty can be part of the future of digital fluency by testing the latest Adobe beta products.
