Apple on Friday introduced a special software package deal called the Pro Apps Bundle for Education, offering both educators and students download codes for Final Cut Pro X, Logic Pro X, Motion 5, Compressor 4, and MainStage 3 from the Mac App Store for as low as $199.

All teachers, faculty, staff, college students, as well as K12 and HiEd institutions, are qualified to opt for the Pro Apps Bundle. Looking at the regular prices of the apps when purchased individually, Apple's offer is a pretty good bargain, considering that Final Cut Pro X, which is Apple's professional video editing software, costs $299.99.

For those who have no idea what these inclusions are, here's a quick lowdown. The Logic Pro X ($199.99) is the audio workstation. Motion 5 ($49.99) allows users to add effects and 3D animations for Final Cut. Compressor 4 ($49.99) allows adjustment in output settings. And the MainStage 3 ($29.99) work together with Logic and is used for live audio performances.

Based on the price breakdown, that's an estimated $430 worth of savings. It's just like buying the Logic App and getting the four other additional apps for free!

The Pro Apps Bundle can be purchased through the Apple Store for Education. Apple will send codes that can be redeemed on the Mac App Store when purchasing the bundle.

The student discounts policy needs to be verified by UNiDAYS, a popular savings program for college students, the Verge reported.

The move is a great idea not only to start training young kids to keep using and purchasing Macs but also to allow them to use and practice pro-level software as learning tools, to start cultivating creativity and ideas even at an early age.

Meanwhile, Apple's MacBook Pro with Touch Bar has recently been banned from bar exams in the US to maintain the credibility of the exam. A software firm exposed that the laptop's advanced predictive text function could be used to cheat.
