Business Central license for a student

(7) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 14
Hello Everyone.

I would like to purchase a Business Central license so that I can continue my education. I do not own a business, I do not work for someone who uses BC, I am not a student.

I used BC at work for 3 years and I am fascinated by it so much that I would like to follow this path. I would also like to obtain the MB-800 certification and to make this possible I need access to a version that will allow me to learn.

I am using the demo version but as you know it does not have all the functions (e.g. I cannot start a company).

I have sent two inquiries to Microsoft on this matter via the appropriate form and to this day I have not received any response.

I am asking for advice on what I should do in this matter so that I can obtain the D365 BC license.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

    The Trial version includes almost all functions, except for some functions such as environment backup, environment transfer, etc.
    PS: Dynamics 365 Business Central is not available in this market (We’re sorry, but Dynamics 365 Business Central isn’t currently available for your account. Please check back later)
     
    Thanks.

    The BC trial version is fine, and contains all functionality. You can even create a completely new company and use it for upto 90 days.
     
     
    After that, simply delete all non-Cronus companies, or create a new trial, using a different email adres, that you can create for free here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/business/compare-all-microsoft-365-business-products?&activetab=tab:primaryr2
