Because BEN provides schools the opportunity to subscribe to the BEN program and not simply purchase Bentley products at a reasonable rate, it ensures that the schools are working with the latest software releases along with receiving support from the industry's premier service and technology subscription program, Bentley SELECT.  Students are also assured of access to this technology by receiving free student licenses valid while they are attending CAD classes at their school.

Schools that subscribe to the BEN program receive the best products available through the A/E/C industry.  These products include Bentley's Microstation and the Engineering Configurations as well as the GEOPAK Civil Engineering Suite.

Bentley's Career Network provides a location where students and teachers can discover what professional companies and organizations are using Bentley products so they can target their job applications more effectively.  Additionally, the Career Network provides a detailed listing of the schools throughout the USA that teach Bentley products.

When a school decides to participate in the BEN program, the cost and requirements are as follows:

Must purchase a minimum of TEN (10) seats
Approximate cost is $200 per seat for the first year
Cost per seat for the second year and beyond is $200 per seat
License becomes invalid and the software becomes unusable once you allow the license to expire
Students currently enrolled in classes with the BEN program can obtain free copies that function as long as student is in a BEN supported CAD class.
