Kiosk for training department

Question

Is there an supported way to install Adobe Creative Cloud in a Kiosk mode where the license is tied to the system and not a user? Office 365 supports this type of feature: How to setup Shared Computer Activation step by step for your education environment – Office 365 Education Blog

We plan on using Adobe Creative Cloud on systems for our training department, and it would be a nightmare to tie the software to each user on shared computers with generic login accounts.

Thanks in advance!

Educational institutions can use device licenses which are tied to the device not the user. Note that these cannot be used with the latest CC 2019 applications.

Create packages with Adobe Creative Cloud for education device licenses

Adobe doesn't seem to be able to provide a solution to enable this functionality with current licensing options (unless you are in education).

I believe the correct answer is that you need to create a ficticious email address for that kiosk... like kiosk1@yourorg.com. You then buy a license for that "user" and you provide your staff with the list of all kiosks and their Adobe Creative Cloud passwords. So long as your kiosk also only uses one operating system user, you should be able to keep the user logged in and not need to re-enter the password very often.
