Named Licensing on Multi-User Computers

I recently went through an onboarding call with Adobe and I am in the process of getting my organization set up so that it can use named licensing instead of serial licensing.   I have my organization federation all set up and that is working and I am in the process of setting up the tool that will sync user accounts from my Active Directory to Adobe Creative Cloud Admin console.

 

I have asked this question of Adobe during my phone calls and no one can seem to help me.   We are an environment where we supply a device to our teachers and students for their individual use but we also have a few computer labs with more powerful desktops for things like Graphic Design, Video Editing, and AutoCAD.  These are multi-user computers where a different student will sign in every class period so I am curious how that would work with the named licensing limitations.   I know that a user can sign into up to 2 devices at one time and if they exceed that they will get prompted to sign out of other devices but it seems if a student signs into a multi-user computer and then signs out of that computer (but leaves themselves signed into the Adobe apps) the next user that signs in is still using the license of the previous user and does not get prompted to sign in.   I was hoping that once I had the federation and SSO set up and working that it would automatically sign users out of their Adobe ID when they signed out of the computer but I do not think that is the case.

 

I think this whole named licensing model with user accounts is going to cause a whole new level of support headaches for organizations such as schools where they have teachers and students that move around a lot and potentially can use many different computers
