Every month we run a “Did You See...?” training session for our Licensing School subscribers. This is a fantastic (and easy!) way to keep up to date with the dozens of changes that happen in the world of licensing every month. Delivered in Louise’s unique style, this session will give you a high-level overview of all the key changes you should know about. This week we’ll cover the announcement of Microsoft 365 E7, along with a whole range of other licensing updates. It’s the perfect opportunity to stay informed, so be sure to join us!

Promotions everywhere! It really feels like there’s been a plethora of promotions lately.

Microsoft have announced that from 11 March 2026, partners will be able to download active promotions from the Partner Center – see the details here: https://bit.ly/4r68XHu. However, we think it’s helpful to have a single bookmark to see both active AND expired promotions. Our popular Promotions Playground provides just that. A huge hit with our subscribers (and within Licensing School!), come and have a play: https://bit.ly/PromotionsPlayground. If you’re not a subscriber…
