Educational Licensing for class with REAL client

Hi all,

My school partners with organizations to allow students to work with real clients in a structured class during the quarter. I'm looking for some guideance on whether I can license images for our client to use after our classes collaboration is over. Our client is a non-profit, so we don't have much of a budget to be buying images. Our school has educational licensing availble for adobe stock, but not sure if our client would be in trouble for using images from our subscription when we are no longer working with them (so like images that would stay on their website, social, etc). 

 

It seems like there is conflicting information for this topic because it is for school purposes but also for a real client...

 

Thank you so much for any help you have!

That is irrelevant.

 

You need to check if your educational licence does allow for commercial activity. We do not know what your constraints are. Your contract owner may know that or your commercial contact.

 

As for non-profit organizations, I always use the free assets. They are plenty enough, and I normally find what I need.
