SATV FAQs

Click the question for answer.

What are SA Vouchers?

Microsoft offers Software Assurance, sometimes called “SA” training vouchers, to companies that purchase Microsoft software under a volume license agreement. The vouchers can then be used to purchase Microsoft technical training. Vouchers are in electronic format and provided by Microsoft. The voucher should be equal to the number of class days for the course you're requesting.

How do I get Vouchers?

IF your company has SA training vouchers as part of your company's Microsoft license agreement, you will need to request vouchers from your internal Software Assurance (SA) Manager.

Once an SATV is created it is valid for 180 days—the student needs to complete the course within the 180 days. Important: Review When do SATVs Expire below regarding deadlines.

You will need to provide the following information when registering for class...

SA training voucher number
The student's Email Address exactly as provided when the voucher was assigned.
(This detail should be on the email that's sent from Microsoft once a voucher is assigned.)

Are there restrictions for Voucher Use?

Yes, there are redemption rules regarding vouchers, plus the upcoming program deadlines impact use.

Software Assurance Training Vouchers (SATV) may only be redeemed for training courses created by Microsoft specifically for the IT professional or developer audience.

Training not eligible for SA Voucher use includes information worker courses (including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint), Azure, On-Demand (self-study), Hands-on labs, clinics, Microsoft Press books, and courses by other software vendors.

(Azure content was removed from the SATV eligibility list as of February 01, 2020.)

When do SATVs expire?

If you create a training voucher before your Software Assurance coverage expires -OR- before July 01, 2021—whichever happens first—the voucher is valid for up to 180 days. The training course needs to be completed within the 180 days.

The entire SATV program retires January 01, 2022 without exceptions or extensions possible.

How do I redeem my voucher?

Speak with an ONLC Education Advisor to find the right Microsoft training for your needs, or select your course from the list of SATV-approved courses. Note the duration of the class you want. Your voucher should equal that same number of class days. Request a voucher from your internal SA Manager.

Once you have your voucher you can web register with ONLC. Enter your SA Voucher code in the payment field —OR— call an ONLC Education Advisor toll free to register by phone or for assistance.
