The Pricing for the online program varies depending on the number of students enrolled at the school, not the number of users.
- 001 &ndash, 399 Students: $325/year
- 400 &ndash, 699 students: $550/year
- 700 &ndash, 999 students: $800/year

There are downloadable versions also available, called Typing Pal Network Junior (that targets elementary school students), which costs from $150 to $375 and Typing Pal Network 5.0 (which is for an older audience of middle &, high school students) and costs from $150-$550. You ought to note that the downloadable version is not compatible for Windows 7 or Vista.
The advantage of the online program is that it covers students from grade 4 all the way through high school. Students and teachers can access the online program from anywhere, no installation required. All of De Marque&rsquo,s efforts to update their typing program have been targeted toward their online version since 2003, so the software products are not near as up-to-date.
