designer-case.com **APPLE VOLUME PURCHASE PROGRAM FOR APPS/OVERVIEW AND GUIDELINES**

> As we discussed, the new APP Volume Purchase Program makes it easy for educational institutions to purchase iOS apps in volume and distribute those apps to end users. In addition to the benefit of "tracking" the purchase of apps for inventory and record keeping purposes, the Volume Purchase Program also allows app developers to offer special pricing for purchases of 20 apps or more. Developers choosing to participate provide our education customers a 50% discount if ordering (20) or more licenses. Not all developers have agreed to volume discounts, but the numbers are growing everyday, and certainly the most popular apps are included.

> <span style="font-size: 12px; list-style-type: none; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 3em; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The district must designate which individual(s) will be set up as the **Authorized purchaser (AP).** Usually AP's are associated with a particular Department: (example: Purchasing,Education Technology, MIS, ESE, Teacher PD/Training, etc.) The AP's role is limited. They are to ensure the Tax exempt status of an institution, and to be in charge of submitting to the Apple VPP program manager, the list of people the district will name to as a **Program Facilitators (PF)**. This may be themselves (PS) or others (example: School Tech Specialists, area resource people, etc.)

To register to become an Authorized Purchaser please visit the following website and apply. You will be asked for your Apple customer number. (The St. Lucie County account number is **34376** <span style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; padding-right: 10px;">)

> <span style="background-position: 100% 50%; color: #3501ee; display: block; font-size: 12px; padding-right: 10px;">@https://gra.apple.com/GRAViewer/pages/Viewer/PreRegistration.faces?appId=83&login=no&force > This process generally takes 3 to 5 days and once completed will allow you to move on to step 2. > ============= > **STEP 2 - ENROLL PROGRAM FACILITATORS** > Once the AP has completed this application, Apple will send a //Welcome email// with further instructions and resources. Within a week, the AP will receive another email with a //spreadsheet//template for naming the Program Facilitators. > The Program Facilitator has the main role in the VPP program. They are the only individuals who can use the VPP **Voucher** to buy Apps, as well as receive the //Codes// for those Apps, using the VPP portal. Within a larger district there may be several AP's, and generally there are many PFs. > The AP must return the spreadsheet with the list of individuals the district chooses to be Program Facilitators. PFs can be Technology Specialists, Department Heads, Supervisors, Teachers, etc. Schools/districts create new email address for this task.**NOTE**: Each Program Facilitator is required to create a new, unique account for the App Store Volume Purchase Program. This is a unique type of account specifically for this program. These accounts will NOT be able to access the iTunes Store to download applications, music, or any other content. We recommend that, for these new Program Facilitator accounts, you create new, generic email addresses for use only with this program (e.g. <span style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; color: #000099; padding-right: 10px;">vppapps@school.edu ). This will ensure that even if a specific Program Facilitator transitions away from their current position, your institution will be able to transfer that account to a new Program Facilitator with minimal delay or hassle. >

Once a voucher is activated within the VPP portal, the voucher card can be discarded. Once activated, each Voucher is tied to**//one//***VPP portal and cannot be shared.
 * NOTE**: Once a voucher is redeemed, it can **NOT** be transferred to another PF's account.

> <span style="list-style-type: none; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 3em; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">To search for Apps you are interested in purchasing, visit the following link: <span style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; color: #000099; padding-right: 10px;">@http://volume.itunes.apple.com/us/store

> <span style="list-style-type: none; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 3em; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Once your district is enrolled in the program, Volume Vouchers can be purchased at the Apple Store for Education in several denominations. These vouchers can be bought on behalf of the educational institution by an Authorized Purchaser. VPP**Vouchers**can be purchased at anytime via your regular method of payment: Purchase Order, P-Card, Credit Card or cash. There are currently 5 denominations for VPP App purchasing:

The PF signs in to the voucher store<span style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; color: #000099; padding-right: 10px;">@http://volume.itunes.apple.com/us/store to purchase the desired discounted Apps and receive the codes. These codes may then be distributed to end-users for redemption at the App store. <span style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; color: #000099; padding-right: 10px;">Terms and conditions apply. Codes may be distributed via email or other means, at the Program Facilitator's discretion. The App Store Volume Purchase Program includes an optional, separate agreement that will allow your institution to use one or more iTunes accounts to sync multiple iOS devices. > <span style="list-style-type: none; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 3em; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">As a part of the new VPP Education Portal, there is also a certain amount of tracking and reporting ability. For example, there will be a report of all APP codes that have been purchased, as well as any APP Codes that have been downloaded and activated (although the actual code is "grayed out").
