Partner helps to execute access through purchase codes for each student (it can be done on the first day of session start or even a few weeks before, can be done on one day or spread across a week - basis schools’ needs)
Kindle team provides ongoing technical support for any issues faced. We also recommend teachers going through the experience first and getting acquainted / sharing any issues they foresee before students being given eBooks
