Installing the Applications
The software is licensed for unlimited installs on faculty/staff machines, and faculty/staff are also allowed to use it on their home machines. The license is not available for student personal use, but can be installed in student computer labs on campus.
Accessing the License Keys
To access the license keys for TechSmith SnagIt and Camtasia, do the following:

Note that our data feed of active faculty and staff is updated near the start of each month, so it may take some time for the license information to appear for you. If you do not see TechSmith SnagIt and Camtasia in the list of licensed software, contact Academic Technology.
Do not provide license keys by email or post them on any publicly available website.
