UCSF IT is introducing Canva, an online graphic design software platform, for faculty, staff, and learners. IT is also offering discounted Adobe software licenses for campus. Read more to learn about the licensing process. 

Canva

Canva is an all-in-one, web-based graphic design application for creators of all skill levels for presentations, websites, templates (including UCSF logos, colors and patterns), and more. The software is free for learners with an active UCSF email address. A license for employees will cost $115 per person for a fiscal year and will be billed to each department on a prorated basis.  

Learn more about Canva and licensing on the UCSF IT Canva webpage. To purchase a license, submit an IT ServiceNow ticket with your chartstring and name(s).  

NOTE: Canva licenses are not purchased through SCM/BearBuy. 

Discounted Adobe Licenses

For Adobe software users, UCSF has an Enterprise Term Licensing Agreement (ETLA) with Adobe to purchase Adobe Acrobat, Acrobat Pro, and Creative Cloud Suite software licenses for UCSF Business and UCSF-owned devices at a discounted rate versus current Adobe VIP licensing.
