How Does it Work?

Every school is different, so we work with you to meet your needs. In general, though, instructors choose their Macmillan Learning course materials. We load those materials into your LMS. You directly bill the students who take that course for their course materials. We charge you only for the students who take the course.

    • Inclusive Access represents a partnership between Macmillan Learning and your bookstore to deliver discounted course materials, through the campus LMS on the first day of classes. The goal is to make materials more affordable for students and remove the barriers of access. Pricing varies by product. Please contact your local sales representative for more information.

(On average, less than 5% ever decide to purchase the optional print item, regardless of the discipline, course or type of school.) And there isn’t a print option available for ebooks.

    • With our Achieve More policy, if any student uses one of our digital products (specifically, LaunchPad, Sapling, Writer’s Help or Achieve Read and Practice) for a course, but then needs to retake that course for academic reasons, we’ll extend access for another term at NO ADDITIONAL COST.

“

Inclusive Access is great!

The first semester we implemented inclusive access my emails from online students decreased dramatically. The first day of class all students have access to the materials they need for the course; thus, helping retention. There is no confusion about codes and trial access. The implementation process was smooth. The folks at Macmillan are readily available and helpful. We are very pleased with inclusive access.”
